Ashlie Young\u00a0aka Neo2rize, is a well-known poet, spoken word artist, activist, advocate, motivational speaker, and actress. Ever since early childhood, she showed forth a special happiness that excites all who\u2019ve had the honor of being around her. Her artistry was first displayed through writing when she was just the tender age of seven. The Atlanta native has thrived as an eclectic artist in Houston, TX since 2005. Throughout her life, she has had the privilege of being a part of many production companies to showcase her theatrical gifts and talents.These productions included \u2018Poetry is My Life, Revenge is My Mission\u2019 (2010), \u2018For Colored Girls\u2019 (2011), \u2018Love Is\u2026\u2019 (2011 & 2012), \u2018Love, Pain, Passion, Progress\u2019 (2012), \u2018Lyfe\u2019s Poetic Revenge-The Movie\u2019, \u2018Girl\u2019s Night Out\u2019 (2013), \u2018Love Is…\u2019- The Movie (2013), and \u2018For Colored Girls\u2019 (2014) by Jus Poetry.<\/p>\n

Ashlie, simply known by many as \u201cNEO2RIZE\u201d, that stands for New to Rize; derived from Neoteric, which is a new or modern day writer or thinker, has been lighting up the Houston poetry scene as a featured poet for many venues throughout the city and surrounding areas. She displayed her spoken word artistry in establishments such as the renowned Red Cat Jazz Caf\u00e9`, Skol\u2019s Casbar & Grille, G\u2019s & Z\u2019s, 410 Lounge, Secret Word Caf\u00e9, The Yoga House, Queens of the Mic featureatte, The Houston Improv, and 2015 2nd place champion of Juneteenth Poetry Slam in Texas City, just to name a few.<\/p>\n

She has received a countless number of awards and recognitions for her work as a positive individual. Ashlie\u2019s passion for people has activated her relentless pursuit to encourage and advocate for survivors of sexual and domestic violence, as well as, motivate those victimized by discouragement from hardships and circumstance in the homeless community.<\/p>\n

She accredits a lot of her success thus far to her loving Husband, Yolan Apoets Poet, beloved Family, belief in Prayer and her ability to use the gift of poetry to help others. \u201cPrayer and poetry have been the only things keeping me grounded throughout all the craziness going on in the world around me.\u201d<\/p>\n

She is currently pursuing her Master\u2019s degree in Psychology and desires to continue blessing the world with her many gifts.<\/p>\n
