Ashley B. Adams

As a Technology Trainer at UNCW, I specialize in making digital tools approachable, practical, and learner-centered. I emphasize clear communication, hands-on learning, and real-world application while developing reusable resources that support continuity of operations. These materials are designed to be accessible for learners and easily leveraged by colleagues across the team.

I hold a master's degree in Supply Chain Management, which complements my instructional design background in areas such as process optimization, training, and change management. I have applied these skills to develop sustainable systems and resources that support strategic goals.

Outside of work, I enjoy reading, cooking, running, and spending time with family.

I serve as the UNC CAUSE Special Interest Group (SIG) Ambassador and have held leadership roles within the organization, including co-chairing the IT Project Management SIG. I have also been part of the UNC CAUSE conference planning team since 2022. These experiences have connected me with so many people across the North Carolina higher education IT community, and I'm proud to contribute to its continued success.

Community Engagement

I enjoy participating in community projects that promote environmental stewardship, community well-being, and opportunities for people to thrive. My volunteer work with organizations including the Alzheimer's Association, IRONMAN Foundation, and Wilmington Baseball Association reflects my commitment to service and strengthening local communities.
