About

Hi! I’m Ash, an illustrator based in Santiago, Chile. I’ve had the pleasure of working across both advertising and animation, bringing a diverse range of skills and visual styles to the table.

With over a decade of experience creating visuals for brands like Hyundai, Metro de Santiago, and Unilever, I’m now eager to dive into the world of publishing and editorial work. I’m especially interested in illustrating book covers for young adult and middle grade titles—but I’m all ears for any interesting projects that come my way.

Let’s bring bold ideas to life together.

I was commissioned to create four original illustrations for an online educational lesson titled “Path to Adulthood,” aimed at youth aged 13–18 across South Asia. The illustrations were designed to visually support stories about growth, emotional development, and mentorship, helping students connect with the lesson's central theme: the journey toward maturity.

Illustrated poster was commissioned by a Christian organization in Uganda as part of a campaign against child violence. Designed to raise awareness and promote empathy, the artwork portrays various forms of abuse—verbal, physical, emotional, and exploitative labor—experienced by children.
