Members at Large

Communications and Technology Committee, Mary Ann Aschenbrenner

Mary Ann Aschenbrenner, President of Waterlink Web.

Mary Ann and her husband, John Aschenbrenner, have lived in St. Johns since 1990. They both enjoy gardening, hiking and this thriving neighborhood. Together they own and operate the seasonal but popular Asches Urban Honey, an apiary in their garden next to the chicken run.

After five years of website marketing and administration for Metro, Mary Ann started building websites and learning coding and search engine optimization at Portland Community College in 2012. One of her first websites was Friends of Pier Park, an advocacy organization she has volunteered for since 2005. In 2014 she completed the PCC program and earned a certificate in Website Development and Design. That is also the year she launched Waterlink Web to build websites for small businesses and nonprofit organizations.

As President of Waterlink Web, Mary Ann has built dozens of WordPress websites for small companies, individuals and nonprofits. The company slogan is, “Connecting Your Customers to You.” Waterlink Web does that by building websites that your customers will find and that make you look good on the internet.
