ASHLYN HORTON is a purpose-driven graphic designer and creative with a quite few tricks up her sleeve. She received her undergraduate degree in politics and international affairs (betcha didn’t see that one coming), and now she gets to boast a master’s degree in strategic design. This education combination, while somewhat unexpected, is just a peak into her diverse skillset. And spoiler, just like in good design there is always more than meets the eye.
Basically born and raised in an arts and crafts studio, Ashlyn always had a knack for creation as well as examination – gotta be careful when handling a glue gun. Her experience studying politics provides a unique understanding of human nature that she applies to her design work. Hyper-aware that both presentation and ideation are key to the success of any project, her keen eye for detail is the foundation of everything that she does. Complementing this ability is her deep appreciation for beauty and perfection in the final deliverable. She strives for her work to be about more than selling a product but rather to bring a dream to life, to tell a story, to deliver a message.
Fueling all this work is her belief that a Celsius (or two or three) a day keeps the doctor away. When she is not deep diving into everything that the Adobe creative suite has to offer, you can find her discovering other people’s realities via TV or going bananas for bananas.
Let’s grab a coffee! (or a Celsius)
