About Me

Self Portrait 2023 using Procreate.

I am designer, creative director, with experience managing multimillion-dollar campaigns. My background in brand strategy, visual design, and project management informs my approach to any project. I am fueled by my curiosity and need to keep improving. I consider myself a "forever student," eager to both build on my academic foundations in graphic design and sociology, and I stay in tune with the latest digital marketing strategies through continued reading and developing new skills such as Figma, Procreate, and Clickup.

I have a hunger for knowledge and determination to turn information into action has contributed to my most recent success at Stellium, where I led a team that produced events and marketing campaigns. Meanwhile, I improved the productivity of my team by implementing agile and kanban project management methods and ensuring a more effective for her department.

I believe that how you serve people is as valuable as what was served—a tenet I lives out through my interests in reading, painting, drawing, and traveling. Reach out to kristen.ashcraft@gmail.com to connect!
