Ashley Tolub
Vice President, Growth
Ashley, a dynamic leader with over 21 years of diverse experience, encompasses a unique blend of government consulting, business development, and project/program management.
Ashley’s professional journey unfolded at Capital One, where she worked in the Legal Department, supporting Mergers & Acquisitions during a transformative period for the financial industry and a pivotal time for Capital One marked by its acquisition of two major banks and transformation from a subprime lender to a formidable bank holding institution.
Her passion for meticulous planning led her to a small event planning firm, where she successfully executed over one hundred events annually. In 2009, Ashley made a pivotal shift to the Gov Con space, working with the DoD Office of Small Business Programs (OSBP) and the U.S. Army (Army Wounded Warrior (AW2)), and Korean War 60 (KW60)) Organizations to plan and execute government conferences, events, and large-scale logistical movement plans. Ashley has provided consulting support to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for the past decade. In her most recent role as an advisor, she has assisted leadership teams in driving actions and achieving desired outcomes. Her contributions include developing organizational strategies and initiatives, implementing notable process improvements, and facilitating a long-standing collaborative workgroup.
As Evans’ Vice President of Growth, Ashley’s responsibilities span across business development, strategic partnerships, developing long-term business growth strategies, proposal management/writing, process improvement, expansion in new and existing clients/Agencies, successful promotion of innovative client-focused solutions, and use of Generative AI to accelerate growth and gain efficiencies.
A Northern Virginia native, and a proud alumna of the University of Virginia (Go’Hoos!), Ashley’s personal life is as vibrant as her professional one. Ashley is deeply committed to community service – volunteering with the Salvation Army (National Capital Region), Northern Virginia Family Service (NVFS), and the Arlington Food Assistance Center (AFAC). She enjoys quality family time and travelling with her husband Jason and their two wonderful children, Lincoln and Morgan. Many of her favorite things include passionately supporting DC professional sports teams (for better or worse), dominating in Fantasy Football, entertaining, listening to Bruce Springsteen, eating cheese, making checklists, sorting laundry, and binging reality TV.
Ashley’s leadership philosophy:
“Effective leadership enables a shared journey of learning, listening, and inspiration.”
