I’m Ashton, a multidisciplinary designer and art director. Whether I’m building a brand identity from scratch, illustrating a custom piece, or figuring out user experiences, I’m obsessed with the details. I don’t just want to make things look 'cool'—I want to make things that make sense. If you’ve got a project in mind, let's talk.
When I'm not pushing pixels, you can usually find me in the air doing circus training, or playing anything DarkSouls related.
