Hi! I’m Ashley, and my Donelson story started way before I did! 1967, to be exact. That is when my Granni moved her family to Kimberly Drive.
Since then, we’ve been woven into every corner of the 37214! My mom was right at the center of neighborhood history, being in the very first graduating class at McGavock High and even working at Opryland USA the summer those gates first opened! I spent my own childhood between Mapelcrest and Lincoya Hill, and attended Pennington Elementary for two years. Even after a 16-year detour to Florida and Paris, this neighborhood called me right back home. I bought my first house, over by the McCampbell House, in 2012 and eventually settled back in Lincoya Hills where I've been living for the last decade.
Now my son is the fourth generation to call the Gateway to Nashville home. I love exploring the world, but I’ve always known there is no place like home and there is no place like Donelson!
