From Donkeys to Data: Distinguished Graduate Ashley Emsweller Hungate’s Journey
Update: 2025-10-28
Description
On the next episode of the WGU Alumni podcast, Ashley Emsweller Hungate —public servant, farm mom of four, and WGU alum—shares her journey of turning nonstop motion into focused momentum. From mini donkeys braying during proctored exams to leading culture and talent at Indiana’s Management Performance Hub, Ashley shows how purpose and practicality can thrive together.
She shares how earning an MBA amid family and farm life built confidence, opened new career lanes, and helped her turn data into public good. We also trace the roots of Indiana’s Statehouse Market, a farmers market turned food ecosystem, and the simple advice from her grandfather that still fuels her drive: map the steps, begin, and keep moving.
