ASHLEIGH CURTIS, Advisor
Ashleigh was part of the beginning of the Mayors Youth Advisory Cabinet when it began with former Mayor, Randy Bishop.
She was a part of the beginning stages of the Shark River dredging project where she was able to meet with the Department of Environmental Protection in Trenton and voice her concerns for the future of the river from a youth stand point. Playing an active role in her community and volunteering her extra time when not working in a local law firm gave her the motivation to want to do more and she decided to study Environmental Science.She graduated from Neptune High School in June of 2009.
Come February of 2014, Ashleigh came on board with the Township of Neptune as a full time employee in the Code & Construction Department. Ashleigh currently works in our EMS department and loves being able to serve the community she lives in!
She came back to the Youth Cabinet in 2017 in order to help oversee a group that is near and dear to her heart. She looks forward to working with the youth of Neptune for years to come!
