The (un)official Ashley Esqueda appreciation post

[jean15paul]

Ashley dropped a bomb on us in today's Monday Brief (embedded below). Apparently this is her last Monday Brief. And based on the comments it sounds like she's leaving Mobile Nations.

I don't think Ashley was everyone one of the regular contributors to the blog, but her Monday Briefs (which she apparently wrote, produced, starred in, and edited) and her other contributions like covering events, appearances on podcasts (AC podcast, Girls Gone Gadgets, etc), participating in the forums, etc helped to make this site what it is.

She'll be missed around here, so I thought this would be a great time to create an Ashley appreciation post. Post your (non-trolling) comments and Ashley memories below.

Very sweet of you to make a post!

Yes, that does, in fact, mean I'll be leaving all of Mobile Nations. You'll still catch some of me during TM13, though!

And of course, we'll always have Twitter~

Informative and she makes me laugh. Simple as that.

Ashley, you rock! Good luck with your future plans- hoping you're staying in the mobile arena!

Mondays won't be the same anymore.
The best of luck Ashley.

I like Ashley because she's smart and insightful; she's awesomely nerdy; she seems to have a great sense of humor and personality; and (let's be honest) she's very nice to look at (no offense). Below is my favorite Ashley moment (0:21) because it combines all those things...

Thanks for the wonderful humor and info, Ashley! Monday will henceforth be Just Another Day ...

Oh, and my favorite clip of Ashley: mischievous, playful humor punctuated by that quick eye-roll and light-up-the-room smile!

Agreed! Someone get one that. Unfortunately I lack both time and editing skills, but I'm willing to provide creative input.

It's weird a Tuesday, well Monday for you guys without her. it was something different which was enjoyable. I think we need a new girl to present! They will have big shoes to fill.
