About
Aviatrix Flight Training is committed to expanding access, representation, and opportunity within aviation. As a female-owned business, my mission is to foster a more inclusive and diverse pilot community while delivering high-level, professional instruction for career-focused aviators.
I specialize in advanced training for commercial and CFI candidates, providing precise, efficient, and personalized instruction designed to help you reach the next stage of your career with confidence.
I’m Ashley,
A true Northwesterner—born in Montana, raised in Seattle, and a Portlander for the past 18 years. I chose to build my aviation career in the PNW, earning all of my ratings here, from private to CFI-I to ATP.
Home base is the St. Johns neighborhood in Portland, where I live with my partner and our Irish Doodle, Penelope Finnegan Leonard. When I’m not in the air, you’ll find me exploring the outdoors—hiking, kayaking, or camping—staying connected to the landscape that continues to shape how I fly.
