Something I'm proud of at Ashby...

I'm working on a workflow to improve our process around collecting feature requests from our customers and reaching out once a feature is released. I love the work our team puts into delighting our customers!

Something I've helped the team with...

I've started drafting internal product documentation for our Support team. I love documenting and consolidating this information in one place for everyone to access.

Ashby is a customizable product which makes it a very powerful tool to use. Not all companies and jobs are the same, and I love how flows within Ashby can be easily adjusted to fit business needs.

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...

I have been so excited to expand our team to include Customer Education and Knowledge Management. Even while still being in the building stages, the foundation we have laid for enablement has driven improvements in our content and related processes. The opportunity to further enable our customers to solve challenges and improve the TA experience using Ashby has been great to see.

Something I've helped the team with...

I restructured our onboarding approach in Support to group learning modules and materials by product area. This has been helpful in giving our new Support folks a deep understanding of the platform, but has made it's way to other Ashby newcomers on other teams.

Most surprising thing about Ashby...

I have learned that it is very possible to move swiftly while being intentional and thoughtful in one's approach. In other organizations, it can be easy to conflate being busy with being productive. It is not that way at Ashby. Having both the responsibility and sense of ownership to approach challenges with deliberate care and collaboration yields stronger results, better change management, and ultimately happier people. It's a unique approach that makes Ashby special.

Something I've helped the team with...

Alongside the updates to our Support hiring process, I've reworked the Support contractor interview process to improve the technical assessment and more effectively evaluate the skills needed to succeed in this role.

Most surprising thing about Ashby...

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...

One of the projects I’m proudest of was partnering with a teammate to support a major customer by reviewing and improving their offer letter templates. It was a detailed and time-intensive process that required a lot of collaboration, communication, and care. It wasn’t flashy, but it really demonstrated how much we’re willing to go the extra mile for our customers - and how well we work together as a team.

Something I've helped the team with...

I’ve contributed to improving our onboarding experience by sharing feedback and ideas from my own ramp-up, some of which are already being implemented for future new hires. I’ve also worked with teammates to fine-tune internal documentation and support workflows - small adjustments that help us move faster and more confidently when supporting customers.

Most surprising thing about Ashby...

I’ve been consistently impressed by how intentional and thoughtful our decision-making is, both in how we build and ship product updates and in how we structure internal processes. Nothing feels rushed or reactive, but we’re still incredibly agile and responsive. It’s super obvious that every decision is grounded in principles and context, which creates a lot of trust across the team.

The pace at which the product and engineering team ship updates is outstanding.

The excitement around the product, both internally and externally, is real, and it’s been incredible to be part of that momentum.

I’m proud of how our team works together to turn ambiguous questions into clear answers for our customers.

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...

One contribution I’m especially proud of at Ashby is building and expanding our Analytics training for both new support team members and customers.

It’s rewarding to see team members and customers gain confidence in building reports that highlight their hard work and drive better decisions.

Something I've helped the team with...

I’ve really enjoyed helping to train our Ashby chat bot AI model to ensure the responses people receive are accurate and helpful in pointing them in the right direction. While AI isn’t perfect, it’s been rewarding to see how much the model has improved over time and to contribute to making it a more reliable resource for our customers.

The most surprising thing about Ashby has been how well we balance speed and quality. The delicate line of rapidly building new tools while also making thoughtful improvements to existing features is rare to see, let alone both done so well at the same time.

Something I've helped the team with...

I’ve launched the first upskilling enablement sessions for Support. So far, the focus has been on the TA space, helping our specialists better understand the customers we serve and approach solutions from their perspective to help them achieve their goals. These sessions are designed to strengthen team knowledge, improve consistency, and embed learning into day-to-day work.

Something I'm proud of at Ashby...

As someone who values social connection in remote environments, I am proud to have created weekly support co-working sessions that allow our team to work together on customer cases, connect with one another, and further foster a space for learning and growth. These weekly meetings have allowed our team to ask more questions, learn more ways to troubleshoot issues, and be able to solve problems much faster.

Something I've helped the team with...

With my background in Talent Acquisition and RecOps. I have been able to help our Specialists better understand the questions our customer ask and the 'why' behind them.

Something I'm excited to work on at Ashby...

As a former Recruiter and Ashby customer, I’m excited to deepen my understanding of how People and Talent teams use Ashby day to day, not just to fix problems but to help them get more value from the product. I want to get sharper technically and build the kind of product knowledge that lets me diagnose issues faster and explain them more clearly to customers. I’m also looking forward to contributing to team projects that improve how we support customers at scale. The more I learn, the more I see how much impact Support has on shaping both the customer experience and the product itself.

My onboarding experience at Ashby...

It’s been structured, intentional, and incredibly well thought out. The pace felt right, with enough guidance to feel supported but enough autonomy to learn by doing. Shadowing sessions and hands-on tickets helped me connect theory to practice quickly. What stood out most was how approachable and responsive everyone has been. I never felt like I had to figure things out alone. The culture of ownership and openness made it easy to ask questions and get context fast, which is rare in a fully remote setup.

Most surprising thing about Ashby...

The most surprising thing about Ashby has been how people consistently show up 101% for themselves, their work, and the team. In most companies, that kind of drive tends to fade as teams grow, but here it feels like the opposite. People care deeply about doing great work and helping others do the same. You see it everywhere, especially in Slack, where people are quick to jump in, offer help, or share a workaround. It’s rare to find a team that combines this level of ownership with genuine kindness, and it’s been incredibly motivating to be part of it.
