Ashley Garland

A native Californian, I spent my youth with a rock in my pocket. Nature was my toy store. I acquired most of my training throughout San Diego, but I also love traveling to find new ideas & skills. My occupations have included, custom car painter, jewelry production manager, photographer, junk dealer, and bartender. Ultimately, I am a biology/art/engineering/crafting nerd, so I love combining these disciplines. I inherited my grandfather\'s engineering aptitude, which I apply to whatever makes my brain dance. I\'m currently slinging my wares on SmashedCreations.com and through local venues such as Make Good in South Park and La Loupe Vintage in University Heights. I spend my days with my chosen family of kooks, queers, & critters. This year, I marry my #1 kook.
