Hi!! My name is Ashley Jones. My husband and I moved to Scottsdale a little over two years ago. I was born and raised in Denver Colorado. We are huge Bronco fans and still follow all Colorado sports. My favorite thing about Arizona is being able to enjoy the great outdoors 8 months out of the year. This past summer we welcomed a beautiful little girl into our lives! We love watching her grow and enjoy learning as new parents. We fell in love with Arizona and are very excited to raise our family here.
