2013 bio:

Miss North Carolina USA 2013 Ashley Love-Mills is a 2010 graduate of North Carolina State University and received a BA in Media Communications as well as a minor in TV/Film Production. She is no stranger to the public eye, working full time in the Southeast market as model and actress.

Ashley is most passionate about being a spokesperson for Peaceful Schools-NC, a local anti-bullying program founded by the North Carolina Psychoanalytic Foundation because she was also the victim of constant bullying while attending high school. Earlier this year she conducted a series of self-esteem workshops for young girls and plans to continue to do so throughout her year of reign.
