Ashley Carr
November 16, 2007
Ashley Dawn Carr was born on December 14, 1985, in Beckley, West Virginia. She is the daughter of Michael and Mary Ann Carr of Oak Hill, West Virginia. Ashley has one brother Chris who currently lives in Northern Virginia with his wife Amber. Ashley attended Oak Hill High School and served as president of her senior class, was captain of the cheerleading squad, and played on the soccer team. She graduated in May 2004 from Oak Hill High School as Salutatorian of her class.
Ashley has always had a desire to attend Marshall University because many members of her family are Marshall graduates. She has been a supporter of the Thundering Herd since a very young age. During Ashley’s freshman year, she was undecided on a major and chose Business Education for the time being. Ashley began looking into the field of speech-language pathology and realized that Marshall had a program for just that. Ashley began taking classes in Communication Disorders in the fall of her sophomore year. She was accepted into the Communication Disorders program in the fall of her junior year. While being in this program, Ashley has truly found an unknown passion for the geriatric population. Ashley’s future plans are to attend graduate school and pursue a Master’s Degree in either Speech-Language Pathology or Occupational Therapy.
When not occupied with school work, Ashley works at Dirty Ernie’s Rib Pit in Fayetteville, West Virginia where she enjoys visiting with the customers that have just gone rafting on the New River or who have just stopped in for the fun atmosphere of the restuarant. Ashley enjoys spending time with friends and family, and she truly loves shopping, just as most women do!
