Earhardt was just not a brilliant mind; she was also a leader in the University, where she served as a senator in student government in the university’s student body.

After studying for a while at Florida, she decided to pursue her dream career and so she transferred to the University of South Carolina, where she undertook a Bachelor of Arts degree (B.A.), this time round majoring in journalism. She graduated in 1999, and at the top of her class.

 Ainsley worked in the station and performed very well. In between 2000 and 2004, she used to be the morning and afternoon anchor, and she did very well. In fact, she was rated at number 1 best anchor in the two categories. Her top notch coverage in those years was  when she travelled to cover South Carolina’s middle school students donate almost half a million dollars in New York, in order to help firefighters. This happened after some attacks on firefighters. The money was spent in buying a new fire truck to reinstate the one that had gotten lost at the World Trade Center Site.

Later on in 2005, Earhardt moved to San Antonio, Texas in the USA, where she joined KENS-TV.
