Ashley Desserich
PR Coordinator
After she attended Butler University for Strategic Communication with a focus on PR and advertising, Ashley opted to call Indianapolis her post-grad home. She loves how PR is all about storytelling, which is why she enjoys writing content of all kinds from pitches to thought leadership articles to LinkedIn posts. Her PR interests include hospitality/tourism, consumer brand and non-profit PR, and she’s excited to dive into more industries here at Dittoe PR. She previously earned in-house marketing experience with an internship at Downtown Indy, Inc., and agency experience interning with a local PR agency. You can find her around the city at local coffee shops (her favorites are Hubbard & Cravens and Parlor Public House), and she enjoys traveling when not working.
