As a true Melbournian, I'm all about finding a great coffee! But as my mobility started to decline, I realised that exploring Melbourne could be tricky without knowing which places were accessible. Living with Friedreich's Ataxia (FA), a rare progressive neuromuscular condition, accessibility is absolutely a priority for me. Frustrated by the lack of information online, the idea for Access with Ash was born!

I'm super passionate about access and inclusion, making sure everyone can enjoy eating out and community events. As a proud patient ambassador for fara (Friedreich Ataxia Research Association), I use different mobility aids to keep moving, with my favourite being my trusty Travelscoot!

I'm a massive AFL fan (go Dogs!), love watching tennis, and catching live music gigs. And truly believe Melbourne is one of the best cities in the world!
