New York —
Ashley loves her day job teaching math, reading and science to fifth graders in Washington state. But like many other teachers, Ashley relies on a side hustle or two to get by.
When she’s not in the classroom, Ashley works as a spray tanner at night during the school year and at her family’s Christmas tree farm over winter break. Her husband, Jake, also a public school teacher, has a side hustle of his own as a painter.
