I am Ashley Williamson, a poet and multidisciplinary artist born on Florida’s Space Coast, raised in the Ozarks of Northwest Arkansas, and now living in the English Lake District. I love writing, photography, and painting and can often be found on long nature walks or bike rides, drawing inspiration from the natural world. By day, I work for Lowell Quality Testing as an industrial radiographer specializing in nondestructive testing in the aerospace industry. I am interested in how science and imagination meet and hope I can inspire others to investigate their worlds with curiosity and wonder.

In 2023, I completed my undergraduate degree in creative writing at Oxford University and am now working on my first full-length poetry collection as well as a short creative nonfiction book.
