Ashleigh Malangone is a lifestyle creator, host of The Eternal Entrepreneur Podcast and the Founder & CEO of Blaise, a tech startup building the missing infrastructure behind modern influencer marketing.

After nearly a decade working as a content creator, strategist, and brand partner, Ashleigh recognized a fundamental flaw in the industry: creators were driving real-world consumer behavior, especially in physical retail, with no way to track, prove, or monetize their impact. Brands were investing heavily in creators, yet lacked verified attribution and clear ROI for in-store conversions. Blaise was built to solve that gap.

Ashleigh built a highly engaged social audience and partnered with leading brands including META, Target, Estée Lauder Companies, REVOLVE, Bluemercury, and Tanger Outlets, to name a few. Her corporate background spans fashion and finance in NYC, giving her rare fluency across creative, commercial, and operational worlds.
