Hi, I’m Ashley.
As a Business Consultant dedicated to global progress, I founded Murray Global Strategies to bridge the gap between high-level impact and operational excellence. In the corporate consulting landscape, I found mission-driven organizations were often forced to compromise their values due to a lack of resources or rigid expectations. I started this company to change that narrative.
My mission is to equip nonprofits and impact-focused businesses with streamlined processes that honor their unique objectives. By blending market research with a deep respect for organizational values, I ensure your mission remains the priority while your operations scale.
I am motivated by the opportunity to advance meaningful change. Let’s work together to amplify your impact and build a more resilient world. 😊
Sincerely,
Ashley R. Murray

How I Support Your Mission:
I bring a diverse programmatic background to every partnership.
-
I believe in detailed organization and effective business process. As a creative problem-solver, I am transparent about systems I believe need improvement, and I can lead structured change in a clear and inclusive way.
I have served as the primary liaison between vendor and client, handling technical operations for new process implementation and technology integration, bringing client organization to the next level. I have managed corporate platforms for firm use, including Benevity (donations and grant management), Sharepoint, Shopify, LightSpeed, Salesforce & CRMs and Azure (project management).
I have experience in company staffing, event execution, logistics & transportation, sales & negotiation, impact measurement and field work research. I can produce documentation for standard operating procedures (SOPs) and lead trainings to elevate your team’s performance and ensure change is implemented sustainably.
-
I have collaborated with many international teams, learning the importance of cross-cultural communication and cultural sensitivity.
As a Spanish-speaker, I have advanced my career through projects that serve Latin America. I have managed over-the-road (OTR) logistics for companies in Mexico, including strategic negotiation for imports and exports. I have also supported a USAID project in Honduras focused on increasing GDP through sustainable tourism development. Throughout various rural regions of Honduras, I worked with local ministries and entrepreneurs to construct business process, marketing and social media deliverables that respect technological and socioeconomic constraints.
I have experience managing international trade shows where expanding market reach can be unlimited, but also comes with many unforeseen challenges. I excel at adaptability, allowing me to quickly adjust and make necessary last-minute changes to accommodate exhibition customers from all over the world.
I love to travel and will never shy away from broadening my global perspective. I am excited to take on all new opportunities, no matter the place!
-
I am a data-driven impact professional quite comfortable behind an Excel spreadsheet.
I have managed charitable financial cycles on a corporate level, gaining experience in grant administration, nonprofit partnerships, proposals and grant agreements. I can track payments, invoicing and financial schedules, including accruals and reconciliations.
I have experience constructing financial reports for charitable giving and campaigns, as well as generating year-end numbers for corporate 10-k’s and foundation annual reports.
-
I have a strong aesthetic eye and fine attention to visual detail. I understand how to improve a product, space, website or brand to be more attractive and enticing. I have worked as a product and exhibition stand designer, organizing a creative and functional customer experience to mobilize sales. I have empowered brands to stand out to less obvious demographics and broaden their market reach.
I am a photographer with experience in the field. I have worked with groups in disadvantaged regions, helping to keep communities comfortable and excited to be photographed as part of the journey. I can utilize Adobe products such as Photoshop and Illustrator, and can compile marketing materials such as videos, brochures and branded company documents.
