We talk about turning down jobs to follow her dreams, moving back in with her roommate (Dad) after college, and not giving up on what she knew was possible. Now she is thriving as the CEO of her own company and focused on saving pets.Ashley is the founder and CEO of Torigen Pharmaceuticals, a start‑up that resulted from her graduate thesis project at the University of Notre Dame.

Torigen and its product, an experimental autologous cancer vaccine, are based upon the research of Dr. Mark Suckow, her former University of Notre Dame professor.
