Howdy!
I’m Ashton a multidisciplinary designer, art director, and professional detail-chaser. Whether it's brand identity, illustration, UX/UI, or motion — I'm in. Making things look "cool" is easy. Making them make sense and look cool is the job. 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 FromSoftware related.
