About

Kia ora! I’m Ash, a Senior Designer based in Wellington, New Zealand. I create meaningful brand and product work that connects with people - whether I’m collaborating with clients end-to-end or making something playful just to make someone smile.

I’m a tactile, hands-on creative with a Bachelor of Design (Honours) in Visual Communication Design. I also run my own jewellery brand, Spacey Gemz, and I love blending research, strategy, illustration, and social media to bring ideas to life with clarity, care, and confidence.
