Ashley Sica, publisher of GREEN BENCH MONTHLY on RadioStPete's "Lunchtime Coversations" 3-15-24

Ashley Sica is the publisher and co-owner of Green Bench Monthly — St. Pete's community magazine. She majored in Marketing at the University of South Florida and, during that time, started working for a group of magazines in West Central Florida. It was then she discovered her passion for storytelling and independent news. Her dream of launching her own publication became a reality when she and her husband, Tony, moved across the bay to St. Petersburg in 2015. Ashley has served as the President of the Magnolia Heights Neighborhood Association and a board member of the Council of Neighborhood Associations and the Downtown Business Association. These days, she enjoys exploring the city with Tony, their one-year-old daughter, Elle and their two dogs, Izzy and Yara. RadioStPete INSIDER caught up with Ashley and talked about the March issue and featured stories, her vision and how St. Petersburg has changed. Green Bench Monthly features local businesses, non-profit organizations, history, arts, development news, and events. It is mailed to more than 16,000 homes and businesses in zip codes 33701, 33703, 33704, and 33713 with additional subscribers all over Pinellas County and beyond. RadioStPete is proud to be a part of this magazine and our March 6 ribbon cutting with the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce and March Spring Fling fundraisers will be featured in the April issue. #greenbenchmonthly ##stpete #stpetefl #ashleysica #tampabayradi #radiostpete #nanettewiser
