Ashley Duffins

     

 Ashley was one of the best leaders I have had in my 9 years of military service. Her passion to do the best she can and her genuine grace make her an amazing leader. She is fun and her true genuine self but she’s one of the hardest working people I’ve ever met! She would make an amazing addition to any organization and would thrive in any leadership position!

 Ashley is a very hard worker, a quick learner, and a great teammate. She brought an amazing attitude to the job every day. We were all very sad to lose her when she left to leave to pursue her MBA abroad, but excited for the opportunities this program will provide her. I am sure that she will find success in whatever her future pursuits entail.

 Ashley was my fellow batchmate during our graduate program (MS in Technology Commercialization) at McCombs School of Business, University of Texas, Austin. We were also part of the same team that was working on a business idea around an innovative and aesthetic product that would help in mitigating global warming, especially in urban areas. Ashley played a pivotal role as a valuable member of the team. She helped effectively in multiple ways - develop new concepts around the product, do thorough market research and consistently contribute to pitching presentations. She was always proactive in helping the team as and when needed. Besides these contribution, she was also a great team member to work with and was always approachable. During my interaction, I have found her a great colleague to work with and very effective team member. I believe she will bring the same set of values and energy to any organization where she becomes a part of. I strongly recommend her and wish her good luck in her future endeavours!

I loved listening to her during the professional presentations as she comes out to be a very strong, knowledgeable, and insightful orator. I wish her all the very best for her future endeavors and I highly recommend her if you are looking for a positive change maker talent in your team.

 My experiences working with Ashley on various small group projects led me to recommend her immediately to my current firm when a position opened up. She’s a world class team player, an intellectual, and a brilliant creative thinker. I am excited to see where her professional pursuits lead her after Madrid and her MBA program.
