Ashley Henderson

I was raised in Northwest Georgia, but have called Holly Ridge home for the past 8 years. I moved to the area as a young military spouse. Over the years I have made many lifelong friends that I am proud to call family.

I have experience in many different job fields. My first real job was as a patient care tech at a hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee. This job taught me the value of taking care of people and that a little TLC can go a long way. When I relocated to North Carolina I began working at a local credit union, and that job was one of my favorites. I loved interacting with so many different people on a daily basis. Whether it was a local business making their daily deposits or an elderly member who needed assistance managing their monthly bills, assisting others was always a pleasure.

A few years later I became a mother and decided to stay home with my first child, a beautiful baby girl we named Rose. Two years later my husband and I welcomed another beautiful daughter, Magnolia, into this world. My children’s education became the priority, and at a very early age they began school. With my daughters in school full-time I found myself needing something to do with my free time. I started volunteering at their school on a regular basis. Shortly afterwards, an assistant teacher position became available and I was recommended for the job. This position allowed me to be mentored by some amazing educators. They poured their hearts and souls into everyone around them. This opportunity opened my eyes to seeing and understanding an individual’s whole situation, the importance of treating all things with respect, and the value of self-reflection.

Real estate has always been interesting to me, and house shopping had become a hobby to my husband and myself. We would always find ourselves looking at floor plans and locations. Because of this, a few influential people in my life suggested that I look into real estate as a career. After some of that self-reflection, I decided to take the leap of faith. I got my real estate license and began searching for a firm. My search included a local firm who was well trusted, cared for others and would be great mentors. Doug and his team came highly recommended. I am honored to be a part of such a positive, supportive community and I’m ready to make your real estate dreams come true!
