Ashling Knight

Vice President of Communications at Aquia

Ashling brings extensive experience leading marketing and communications strategy to her role at Aquia. Passionate about making the world a better and safer place, Ashling is driven by a sense of purpose and (too much) caffeine.

Prior to joining Aquia, Ashling managed communications, marketing, and brand strategy for a number of nonprofit and B2B organizations, where she also dabbled in event management – as so many communications professionals do! 

She credits her time at the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation with helping her realize her passion for project management and deep appreciation for the art of effective copywriting. She spearheaded communications campaign management, publication management, web content strategy and execution, and more for the $4B national nonprofit. 

Ashling graduated with a bachelor's degree in Public Relations from York College of Pennsylvania. She currently serves as the Communications Committee chair at the Digital Services Coalition. In her spare time, she loves to travel and spend time with her husband, two young children, and two needy but adorable dogs.
