Ashley Gorman has lived and worked in Providence for about 15 years. She started in the Providence's culinary scene as a server and bartender downtown and has always had a passion for the service industry. After graduating from Rhode Island College with an anthropology degree, Ashley became the general manager of The Duck and Bunny. She lives for the busy brunches and restaurant chaos — it's something different everyday. In her spare time Ashley volunteers at Providence animal shelters, working with "pitbull-type" dogs and spending time with her own two dogs, Monkey and Rocky. When she is not working or walking dogs, she prefers to be outside hiking, kayaking or snowboarding, as well as drinking craft beer and enjoying fancy cheese.
