Ashley Victoria Koller, aged 20, was last seen in Sun City, California, around May 1, 2010, though the exact date of her disappearance is uncertain due to conflicting reports from various sources. Prior to her disappearance, in July 2009, Koller had been living with her stepmother in Corona, California. She then took a job in Santa Barbara and relocated there, which led to her becoming distant from her family and friends. While she was seen in July 2009, she remained in contact with loved ones for some time after. However, all phone calls and emails from her ceased in May 2010. There are varying accounts of her last contact, with some sources citing January 30, 2010, and others noting her last verified contact as a distressing phone call to a friend in August 2009. The California Department of Justice lists her last seen date as November 1, 2009.
Leading up to her disappearance, changes in Koller's behavior were observed by her family. She reportedly became estranged from her mother and for a time moved to Arkansas to live with a friend before returning to California. Upon her return, she enrolled in college in Riverside and began working as a personal assistant for a woman with an online business. It was after moving to Santa Barbara for a new job in late 2009 that she grew more distant from those close to her. Since that time, there has been no contact with her, and as of August 2016, no police contacts or social media postings have been found.
At the time she went missing, Ashley Koller was described as a white female with brown hair and blue eyes, standing between 5'2" and 5'5" and weighing between 110 and 135 pounds. She has a freckled complexion and may have dyed her hair. It is also believed that she may be using the alias Victoria Lawson. The Corona Police Department is investigating her disappearance. There is speculation that she may be living in the Inland Empire area of California.
