Buckeyes in your Backyard - Ashley Miley

Meet Ashley

College: Arts and Sciences

Major: Music Performance and Education

Minor(s): Art Entrepreneurship

Representing County: Hamilton County

Pending Graduation Date: December 2017

Hobbies: Music, working out, reading, cooking/baking, and exploring local coffee shops

Career goals after graduation: I hope to perform in a major orchestra, teach at a university/conservatory, and open an art nonprofit focused on creating accessibility while using music education and performance as a vehicle for emotional and self-education. 

Personal goal during Buckeyes in Your Backyard: I hope to be the first step in cultivating a long-term relationship between our alumni & the university and learn how Ohio State has personally impacted the lives of our alumni.

Favorite Ohio State tradition: The Celebration Concert in the School of Music. It's a great opportunity for the whole school to come together and to connect with the Ohio State and Columbus communities.

*Buckeyes in Your Backyard is a new program created by The Ohio State University Alumni Association to connect alumni living in Ohio with current Ohio State students. In our program’s inaugural year, we’ve recruited five enthusiastic undergraduates to spend the summer in their home counties – and they want to meet you! The students will be reaching out for one-on-one visits to learn about your Ohio State experiences, share the exciting things happening in their studies and at the university, and discuss ways you can stay connected with your alma mater.
