Inspired by her own personal experience with care giving, Kimberly Douglas joined Ashford in April 2024, in the Memphis, TN office as a Financial Representative. Her primary objective is making a difference by educating her clients about budgeting and long-term financial strategizing. Previously she worked with Appaloosa Broadcasting managing sales for 15 radio stations out west. Most of her career was in Marketing, Sales, and Strategic Partnership roles for media companies like Time-Warner/Media Networks Inc., Forbes, Petersen Publishing, iHeart Media and The Garden & Gun magazine.
In her previous insurance sales role from 2009-2016 with Markel Insurance, she worked in the specialty division and managed the Arabian Horse Practice. This division focused on equine related coverage like Equine Mortality, Equine Medical/Surgical, Farm & Ranch (P&C) and Equine related liability within the Arabian horse community both nationally and internationally.
Kimberly chose to move to a career in the financial services industry because she realized, after caring for her mother, the importance of financial strategizing and the significance of having a financial strategy in place. At the same time, she was caring for her parent, two of her closest friends had similar situations with their parents. They were all struggling to find answers and had made assumptions about Medicare that were incorrect. Therefore, she decided she wanted to focus on helping individuals with budgeting and strategizing, so they would not feel overwhelmed by government programs like Medicare and insurance. She takes great pride in helping her clients understand the fundamentals needed to help them not outlive their income.
In her spare time, she volunteers with Church Health and other local projects. Kimberly enjoys owing and showing her Arabian horse as well as hiking, skiing, and running, and being outside with her two Standard Poodles.
