Brand and communications
for what comes next.

What we communicate
is what we create.

I help shape how purpose is expressed in the world — taking what exists within a brand, a team, an organisation, and giving it back in language and form that their mission can be realised in.

Working closely with founders and leaders, I bring strategic thinking, people leadership and a strong commercial lens to navigate complex ideas, until what emerges is clear and shared.

I work with purpose-led organisations, not-for-profits and government across the full spectrum of brand and communications — from organisational strategy, brand and market positioning through to visual identity, websites, content and campaigns. My engagements take a number of forms:

Kind words

“Working with Ashleigh has been a standout experience. Our project was deeply iterative, the details evolved as we learned how to represent hierarchies of information in an interconnected way, and Ashleigh moved with us every step of the way, reshaping and refining without missing a beat.”

— Nicole Barling-LukeDirector of Earthshots, Regen Melbourne

About

I’m endlessly curious about how people think – mental models, human development, philosophy, what makes us tick. Connecting our brands and our organisations to what it means to be human, what we value and what matters most lives at the heart of my practice.

I’ve spent the better part of the last two decades working through the cultural and technological shifts that have shaped how brands show up in the world. Each chapter, from the rise of eCommerce to AI, has raised new questions about who we are and what matters most.

Businesses have a huge role to play in the world we’re creating, and how we choose to communicate shapes the reality around us. This is why I choose to work with the people and organisations building towards something better.

I live in Naarm/Melbourne with my husband Nick, our boys Kai and Lucas, and our pups Wilbur and Chloe. When I’m not working you’ll find me enjoying Melbourne’s food scene and tinkering with home DIY projects.
