Chosen as part of a nationwide tour of five cities - Orlando, Philadelphia, Chicago, Houston, and Anaheim - Ashleigh is proud to join the team of Halo Outpost Discovery to bring the Halo universe to fans all over the country. As the lead xenobiologist and xenolinguist (and the shortest member) of the science team, Dr. Gardner is highly familiar with Covenant species, politics, and languages, and she delights in telling stories about how the Kig-yar race is a pirating, matriarchal society.
