Name: Ashley Epps

Where do you live? I live in Montclair, NJ

When did you move there? I’ve lived in Montclair for 22 years. I moved here at 6 years old.

How do you make a living? OR What is your everyday passion? I own Pawparazzi Glam Mobile, a mobile pet grooming salon that specializes in dog grooming services for all breeds. I noticed a huge need for a convenient approach to pet grooming, and I have a passion for animals, so Pawparazzi was born!

What’s your idea of a perfect weekend day? My perfect weekend activity is to binge-watch horror movies and maybe go out dancing with a few of my girlfriends. And of course, I’d want to spend time with family and relax.

What’s your favorite local restaurant? Paraiso Dominicana on William Street in Montclair. It’s great food, and his empanadas are amazing!

What’s on your nightstand? A bottle of water, a book I’m reading called Mistress by James Patterson, and two eyelash strips. LOL

What are you listening to? I’m listening to Musiq Soulchild’s Halfcrazy. Love this song.

What are your current indulgences? Sweets and pasta. I know I don’t need it because I need this summer body, but it looks like the summer is going to get whatever body I have to offer at this point. LOL

What talent you would most like to have? I would love to be able to sing. Like really sing – Whitney Houston level. Not like the yelling I do now. LOL

What do you hope they say about you at your funeral? I hope people would say I was funny, outgoing, ambitious, kind, giving, and a person that no one could forget.
