Amy Daubenspeck: Local Promise, Local Power

Interview and story by Tracy Leturgey of Ashland Source.

Amy Daubenspeck values community and loyalty. The Executive Director for the Ashland Area Convention and Visitors Bureau, now called the Explore Ashland, now also serves as the interim director of the Ashland Area Chamber of Commerce. Though not an Ashland native, her passion for the area couldn't be stronger--it was a major consideration in her life choices when she faced the unthinkable: a home destroyed by fire. Her Ohio Values photo was taken in 2012, when the Ashland Area Convention and Visitors Bureau launched its first t-shirt campaign. Amy is front and center, proudly showcasing the distinctive design.
