Ashley Marks - Nominee for Talent Innovator Award - 2022 Campus Recruiting Choice Awards

Ashley is the “Chief Experience Officer” for interns during their time with Electronic Arts. She’s worked in several roles in the games industry, in both AAA and indie. From community management, learning and development, voice acting and recruiting - to her latest role, designing awesome experiences to help develop and celebrate early career talent at EA. Ashley meticulously plans the intern journey similarly to how EA thinks of player journeys in their games, from booting up, tutorials, exploring the world, and end game where interns are armed with the best gear and skills to finish strong.

Career Highlight

Last summer, Ashley delivered over 50 engaging virtual events to 150 interns across North America. Standout events included a nail-biter Apex Legends tournament with Electronic Arts game developers, the first-ever Intern Dev Day, a full day dedicated to celebrating interns, as well as hosting a talk with Andrew Wilson, EA’s CEO, to learn more about his journey and answer intern questions. It was an action-packed summer full of fun and unique experiences that wrapped up with the first internal 'In The Game Awards' where interns were nominated and awarded for championing and embodying the values at EA.
