Senior Profile - Ashley Brown

May 7, 2004

Van and LeAnna Brown of Eads had their first child on April 5, 1986 in Lamar, Colorado. They named the dark-haired little girl Ashley and soon learned this little girl would become something very special. Family and school has always been Ashley’s focus and she remembers as a little girl being pulled on a sled behind her dad’s motorcycle. Her role model is her mother because she has had a positive influence on her. Ashley says her mom has always been there when she needed her and is a very kind person. Ashley has taken a heavy course load in school so it is no surprise that Chemistry is her favorite class because she likes the experiments they have conducted. She’s most proud of her successes in FFA and becoming the Eads Chapter President is her most memorable event in high school. Ashley has always been interested in politics and public service and as such will run for a state FFA office when she graduates. If she does not receive an office she will begin Pre-Law course work at either Regis University or the University of Denver. She sees herself as a practicing lawyer in ten years. Ashley leaves some good advice and ideas for our school community. To the underclassmen she says to remember what’s best for you isn’t always popular and what’s popular isn’t always best. She adds she would love to see a teen recreation center in Eads in the near future.
