Personally, Ms. Ashworth has spent most of her life on the West Coast: in Southern
Oregon and the Bay Area (California), where she relocated from in July 2006. In
her spare time she enjoys spending time with her daughter Jessica, family and friends,
sewing and designing (childhood passion), reading, museums and the outdoors. Ms.
Ashworth and her family love to attend and watch sporting events; rooting for the
San Francisco Giants and Arizona Cardinals.
Ms. Ashworth looks forward to exploring new visions, experiences and challenges
with Navajo County!
