Ashley Burns

Director of Finance and Administration

Ashley Burns has always had a caregiver’s heart and a desire to serve others. At an early age, she began volunteering with various organizations across the U.S. and overseas serving veterans, children, and seniors. She built homes for those in need and assisted in the rebuilding of a school in Cartagena, Columbia. She then took her passion for serving others a step further and joined the U.S. Navy, where she remained for seven years. Ashley continued her personal and professional growth as she obtained her MBA and drew on her education and experience in her role as Business Office Director in the senior living industry. She has dedicated her life to helping others and continues to do so now as the Director of Finance and Administration for the LGS Foundation. Ashley and her husband have one son and one daughter. They enjoy spending time together outdoors, dancing, and being silly.
