Early Life
Ashley ShahAhmadi was born in the United States of America on June 23, 1992. Born and nurtured in the United States by an Iranian father who moved to the United States when he was fourteen years old. He married Ashley’s mother, Cheryl Rebeshke of Saint Cloud, Minnesota when he was an adult. Ashley grew up with her two brothers, Aryon and Brandon, in Atlanta, Georgia. She has wanted to be an NBA sideline reporter since she was a child. Her basketball interest led her to Marrieta Kell High School, where she honed her shot-blocking abilities. Her favorite basketball memory from high school is being the team’s second-leading scorer, accounting for half of the team’s points.
Ashley’s passion to become a sports reporter was sparked during her seventh grade when she was taken by her mother to see one of the Atlanta Hawks games and saw a well-dressed lady with a microphone on her hands conversing with the Hawks’ head coach courtside. In 2014, the girl who hoped for her dream to come true received her bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism from the University of Georgia. Since Ashley’s father moved out during her freshman year of high school, it was up to her mother to raise three children on her own during her college years. She began hunting for work after graduation. She obtained her first job as a sports reporter in Meridian, Mississippi.
