About

Hey there! Welcome to my blog exploring home design and the build process in the Austin area. I’m Ashley, and I believe everyone deserves a home designed for the way they live. By guiding people through the complexities of building on their own land, I help turn uncertainty into confidence and dreams into reality.

As a new home consultant specializing in Build On Your Lot projects in Austin, the Hill Country, and Texas’ best lake communities, I work for one of the nation’s top homebuilders—helping buyers transform land into dream homes, whether it’s a city teardown, a hilltop retreat, or a lakeside getaway.

Build On Your Lot with Ashley is my blog—an extension of my work as a Build On Your Lot Consultant—where I share expert tips, insights, and behind-the-scenes knowledge to help you navigate the homebuilding process.

And if you're ready to build, let’s talk!
