Ashley Fajardo

Ashley is the Founder and president of Ellavation. After her own Spina Bifida warrior was born, Ashley decided to leave her full time job to pour her energy into her passion of caring for the Spina Bifida community around her. She currently has transitioned to full time management of Ellavation and full time caretaker of her youngest daughter, Ella.

In conjunction with raising her family, Ashley has past experience as a nurse, nurse practitioner, and nurse educator. All of these roles have helped equip her for her most current endeavor, nonprofit charity work. She is also currently a member of the Lurie Children’s Spina Bifida Family Advisory Board. Ashley’s passion is evident and she couldn’t be more equipped to be a part of Ellavation’s mission.

In her spare time you can catch her refinishing furniture, trying to travel, or taking on a new project in her home!
