Ashleigh has trained exclusively at Film & Television Studio International since we opened our doors in Brisbane in 1999. At the young age of eight, she was one of our very first students. Ashleigh was trained, mentored and managed by Craig and Dominique McMahon (Founders of McMahon Management and Film & Television Studio International) throughout her primary and high school years in Brisbane. After winning roles on various TV shows throughout that time (including H20; Just Add Water & The Saddle Club), she then had the opportunity to audition for the series regular role of Kate Ramsay on Neighbours. She was cast by the wonderful Jan Russ and relocated to Melbourne to live with Craig and Dominique just after she finished high school. In 2014, after 5 years on the show, Ashleigh and the McMahon Management team decided it was time to move on, and within weeks of landing in Los Angeles, she was signed to one of the most watched shows in the world, being cast as Ivy Forrester in The Bold and the Beautiful at CBS studios in Hollywood. She has since returned to Australia to star in Home & Away before heading back to Los Angeles, where she is currently reprising her role as Ivy Forrester in one of the most watched shows in the world. In between her commitments on Bold, she appeared in Tom Kapinos’s television comedy-drama Lovestruck, alongside Rachel Bilson, Andie MacDowell and Richard Roxburgh, and played the role of Totally Hair Barbie in the 2023 film Barbie. We are incredibly proud of her ongoing achievements.
