Ashten Williams

IAM THAT GIRL OF THE MONTH

Ashten Williams attends Shawnee Mission East High School as a freshman! She enjoys athletic volleyball and recently became certified in nail artistry at the age of 14!

Ashten is affectionately referred to as "Bossee" by her family because she is a natural leader who "manages" everyone with care.

 

In 2022, Ashten joined I AM 4:ThirTEENS for the experience of connecting with other teenagers. She has participated in media challenges since joining, and she and two of her teammates were the winners of the I AM 4:ThirTEENS podcast pitch competition. Her confidence and desire to inspire other young girls who struggle with social anxiety have grown as a result of her participation in I AM 4:ThirTEENS.

 

Her mission is to continue raising awareness about teen anxiety and depression in order to prevent suicide in young black girls, which has increased by 6.6% per year over the last decade.

 

She currently works part-time as a t-shirt printer and hopes to one day own a nail salon and luxury spa.
