Ashley Blais

Ashley Blais is Partner and Head of Media at FINN Partners, where she co-leads the Media practice. She started in national broadcast buying and got hooked on a simple truth: the right message to the right people at the right time. She has led integrated plans across video, social, search, audio, and OOH for brands including Fidelity, Panasonic, Goodyear, DECKED, Vanderbilt University Medical Center, and phade Straws, and she even helped lead a museum rebrand in the arts world. Today she focuses on content partnerships and emerging formats like virtual product placement, including DECKED’s work on CBS’s The Road, and at home she’s mastering advanced diplomacy with her 1- and 3-year-olds. She grew up in Providence, Rhode Island, which explains the straight talk, accent not included.
