About
Behind every design is a story, so here’s mine.
From agency experience to international adventures, my journey as a designer has been shaped by curiosity, collaboration, and creativity.
Let’s talk design, travel, music, and everything in between.
My Background
I’m Ashley, a digital media designer passionate about creating purposeful, fun, and engaging design. Whether it’s a brand identity, a responsive website, or a social media campaign, I love connecting ideas with strategy to make work that’s not only beautiful, but effective.
In Quinnipiac University’s accelerated communications program, I recently graduated Summa Cum Laude with Bachelor of Art’s in Graphic & Interactive Design with a minor in Computer Information Systems to deepen my UX/UI and web skillset. I am also working toward my Master’s in Interactive Media & Communications.
Over the past few years, I’ve grown through hands-on roles in agency settings, freelance work, and cross-functional team projects, all while building a strong foundation in digital storytelling, design thinking, and user-centered strategy.
