I'm Ashley.
I'm the Oregon-based designer and developer behind Aura. I make websites for small businesses, creative projects, and people who want something that feels a little more like their own.
I enjoy both sides of the process: getting the layout and details right, and making sure everything works smoothly behind the scenes. Some projects call for a simple, straightforward site; others have room for something more playful.
You'll work directly with me from the first conversation through launch. You don't need a polished brief to get started—an idea, a question, or an existing site that needs some attention is plenty.
