Hi, I’m Ash!

designer. leader. lover of sarcasm.

I'm a Creative Lead and Designer with over a decade of experience in visual storytelling, brand building, and driving measurable impact.

For the past six years, I’ve worked in the fintech space developing creative strategies that boost brand visibility and lead generation. My previous roles have given me a deep understanding of creative operations, project management, agile marketing, and leadership – core pillars that shape my unique approach. I’m passionate about translating complex business goals into legible consumer concepts, and as a leader I value mentorship and transparency to push people and brands forward.

Design is so much more than making something look pretty - it needs to create impact for both company and audience.

Let’s create something meaningful together.
