Ashlyn Greer: The Owner Behind AMP's Tanning

Ashlyn Greer, a twenty-five-year-old business owner, relocated to Crossville with her family at the age of twelve. She graduated from Stone Memorial High School in 2017 and then joined the U.S. Army. At eighteen, she found herself far from her family, stationed over two thousand miles away in Washington state. After completing her first contract, she continued her military career in South Carolina. Reflecting on her experience, she acknowledges that the military played a significant role in shaping her into the person she is today. Returning to Crossville, she started her own family, marrying Dayton Greer in 2021 and welcoming their first child, Jenson, in 2022. In May 2024, she gave birth to their second son, Preston, clearly demonstrating that her family and children are her top priority in all that she does.
