Ashley Maniscalco

Grateful for her simple childhood growing up in a small town in Colorado, Ashley’s happiest memories were riding 4-wheelers, going to the mountains with her Papa, working summers on a ranch cleaning cabins and riding horses, and playing hide-n-seek in her Grandparents’ massive scrap yard. She attended LSU, began her hospitality career in Baton Rouge, and spent a great deal of time in New Orleans. A graduate from Metro in Denver, she worked with the Denver Nuggets and planned events at venues such as the Pepsi Center and the Colorado Convention Center. But after meeting her partner, they committed to the city they loved, Colorado Springs.

Having worked in the hospitality community in the Springs for nearly a decade, Ashley is eager to help members discover this beautiful city. Want to eat somewhere special? Ashley is an avid foodie and can recommend many area restaurants. While this Director loves to travel, she has many hobbies to keep her close to home. She loves hiking, her dogs Mia and Milo, her Peloton, weekend sleepovers with her nieces and nephews, photography, social media, and making natural bath and beauty products. Interested in making soy candles? Let Ashley show you how!
