Ashley Korenblat
for Grand County Commission
As a business owner, economic development consultant, wife, mother, and soccer coach –
I am running to serve all the people of Grand County.
I have spent the last decade working as a non-profit recreation economy consultant in communities across the west.
While every community is unique, I have learned a lot about the many challenges we face in Grand County.
Ashley, her husband Mark, and son Kip
The most important things I’ve learned are these:
First: Win/win solutions are available. There are ways to support our businesses while simultaneously upholding local quality of life and keeping our public lands healthy.
And second: To find solutions, everyone needs to be heard.
My past experience has taught me a lot about what works and what doesn’t. I hope to bring together connections, solutions, and stakeholder engagement to serve the residents of Grand County.
