Ashley Pate, ASID
Ashley brings over 25 years of experience to the interior design industry. She is an Allied member of ASID (American Society of Interior Designers) and a Professional member of IDS (Interior Design Society).
After earning her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Interior Design from The Art Institute of Dallas in 2001, Ashley began her career as an interior designer in the healthcare, retail, and kitchen & bath industries before discovering her true passion as an entrepreneur. Through hard work and persistent dedication, she founded APiD and has since grown it into a full-service interior design firm, known for its timeless elegance and client-focused approach.
In 2021, Ashley created a new initiative, "The House That Built Me," a meaningful way for APiD to give back to the community. This program provides free professional interior design services to single, hard-working mothers, helping them create safe and comfortable homes.
When not designing, Ashley loves spending time with her husband of 21 years, JW, and their two teenage children, Avery and Talon.
