Learn about the creators of the Room for Creativity Podcast.
Matt and Ashley
Ashley Idle is an Ontario native, and is known for being loud in both volume and spirit. She was raised by a group of people who are also quite loud. While attending Nipissing University in 2004, she met her partner in life, crime, and everything else, Matthew.
Matthew Donnelly hails from Ontario’s Great White North (Bay). He probably won’t say hi first. He’s friendly, but introverted and occasionally elusive. Before heading to start classes at Wilfrid Laurier University, he met the loud girl through his best friend.
The rest, they say, is History.
Since 2008, Matt and Ashley have been exploring, creating, and growing as a duo. This podcast is the latest venture in a list of projects the pair have undertaken – both individually and together!
Thank you for taking an interest in our creative journey. We hope you will join us as we learn and create a little extra Room for Creativity.
