About The Publisher: Ashton Brandow

Hello! I'm Ashton, new on the Macaroni KID team this March 2026, and I'm brimming with ideas on getting my feet wet in the community this year. Making our 2027 something even grander to look forward to! 

I grew up a Wyoming, MI local and over some traveling years from Maryland to Tennessee, we made it back home and landed here in Byron Center. I have a husband, a young daughter, and an even younger wild son. 

I'm a glass-half-full silver-lining seeker; almost always on the upside. Creating a newsletter and cultivating a space through Macaroni KID to pass along communal information for your families and mine is going to be a fun and blessed wave to ride! 

Please feel free to pass along any event that floats your boats, follow my page on Facebook and I'll be here!
