Meet Me In Beaverton

Meet Me In Beaverton

The Beaverton Area Chamber of Commerce

Meet Me In Beaverton is all about the people and places you should know in Beaverton, Oregon and the surrounding area. In each episode, we interview people in the Beaverton community who own or do business with you, their neighbors. Sure, we’ll talk a bit about their business, but only just a bit. Mostly, this is about introducing you to your Beaverton neighbors, to hear their stories, learn about who they are, where they came from, and maybe have a laugh or two or learn something interesting along the way. And then yeah, we’ll also let you know about what they do and how they can help you. The goal here is to encourage you to buy local, and more than that, to know who it is you’re dealing with when you walk in that shop or restaurant, or make that call for a service. Meet Me In Beaverton is about helping you build connections to your community because when that happens, all those digital walls and silos we hear so much about?, they’ll come tumbling down. Meet Me in Beaverton is produced by LeftBrainRightBrain Marketing in partnership with The Beaverton Area Chamber of Commerce.

Meet Me In Beaverton - Race Walking Toward a Better Community
play

08/10/23 • 73 min

Meet Ashley Hartmeier-Prigg, Beaverton City Council President
At a young age, Ashley Hartmeier-Prigg learned the lessons of hard work. She and her siblings would help out their parents when it came to keeping up the building owned by her grandparents. That, and watching her parents, who came to parenthood early, working hard themselves to keep the lights on. The middle of three kids, Ashley was pretty much a straight arrow. You see she and her sibs grew up in Catholic schools, so as I can attest to, Sr. Mary Holywater is always whispering in your ear. That didn’t stop me from, well, coloring outside the lines. But it helped Ashley navigate her world.

After high school she went on to, of course, another Catholic school, the University of Portland. Ashley pursued a degree in Political Science, then attending law school at Willamette University, where she became an avowed progressive. In 2012, as the recession was in full swing, she took a contracting gig with Nike, where she discovered race walking. She entered the world of competition and won races from 1 mile to 20 kilometers, and she’s never stopped walking fast toward making Beaverton a better place.
