This year's best things (2025)
A round-up of 2025, and a small look forward to 2026.
Hi, my name is Ash, I'm an advisor and strategist. I help cultural organisations find focus and confidence when digital feels complicated or overwhelming
For two decades I've worked with leaders and teams to build awareness, make sense of what matters, and to act.
I mostly work at the messy intersection of strategy, technology, teams, and audiences
