Ashley McKinney is a working Assistant Editor and Editor in Hollywood. After being diagnosed with PTSD in 2015, she has been an incredibly passionate and outspoken advocate for herself and others in the industry who struggle with mental illness. No one should have to deal with stigma in 2022. In the summer of 2022 Ashley worked with other assistant editors to create the Disability and Accessibility steering committee. She has also worked closely with the Local 700 Young Workers Group as a core and founding member to organize and plan interlocal events for all of this in the IATSE Hollywood Bargaining Group.

Outside of her work with the Guild she has volunteered with Blue Collar Post Collective since 2015. She loves the world of Post Production with a particular passion for independent film, Comic book series, and all things Harley Quinn. Her love for Post is only rivaled by her love for hockey. She is an avid St. Louis Blues fan and can often be found passionately expressing her support for her team.
