Ep. 218: Breaking Beauty Norms: Ashley Williams On Natural Hair in Pageantry
Manage episode 418389250 series 2936826
On this week’s episode of the Friends in Beauty podcast I welcome Ashley Williams to the Friends in Beauty guest chair. Ashley made history by becoming the first Caribbean-American, with roots in Jamaica and Turks and Caicos Island, to be named Miss Virginia USA.
With years of experience as an event coordinator, she works with government contracting executives and is grateful for the opportunity to connect our nation’s leaders. Ashley was able to combine her passion for dance with serving the community by becoming a NFL Cheerleader. Some of her favorite experiences during her three year tenure as a cheerleader include: traveling overseas on USO tours, performing in the 2020 Super Bowl Halftime show alongside J Lo and Shakira, and skydiving with the United States Army Parachute Team.
Her goal is to continuously show appreciation for our troops by working with organizations that empower active-duty military and veterans. Earning her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology, she is a proud first-generation college graduate, who completed her studies as a student athlete.
Ashley shares a lot of insight into the world of beauty pageants that is truly eye opening and inspirational for the next generation.
