Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAshley Bass is a program manager specializing in partner operations, business development, and partnerships with 5+ years building STEAM, media, and design education programs across nonprofit, corporate, and higher education sectors. Currently at Figma, she has led education and engagement initiatives at GitHub, Scratch Foundation, and organizations like Black Girls CODE and the United Nations Foundation to expand access and career pathways for underserved youth and adult learners. Trained in integrated design and art administration (Parsons, Baruch), she brings a designer’s systems thinking to program strategy, employee engagement, and ERG-driven volunteer and placement pipelines. Ashley’s work is guided by four pillars—Access, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion—and she consistently translates those values into scalable partnerships, city-wide initiatives, and practical learning experiences. Notably, she blends creative curriculum design with corporate partnership activation, making her equally comfortable convening panels as she is operationalizing job-placement pathways.
