Ashley Pickering is a Melbourne based Brand & UI designer, with over 12 years experience delighting clients, leading projects & influencing teams.
Creative Tools & Apps
+ Various Management Tools
Originally from East Yorkshire, England, a thirst for snow led me to travel and live in various countries around the world. During this time I continued to develop my skills and career, by freelancing for many agencies and completing projects for clients of my own.
Now settled in Melbourne, Australia, I continue to delight both agencies and clients with strong strategic creativity and technical skills. Pulling them together to tell stories, create better customer interactions, enhance brands and smooth out operational processes.
I love how strong a combination of design and strategic thinking is when untangling tough client challenges. And can’t get enough of delighting clients with new concepts and execution using it.
