Ashton Gravelle

Creative Astronaut

What’s a Creative Astronaut? For me, it’s about exploration — pushing into uncharted ideas, adapting quickly, and finding creative ways to connect people through design. I bring that same curiosity and sense of adventure into every project.


Welcome! I’m a results-oriented senior designer with 8+ years of experience crafting user-centric digital experiences and supporting cross-functional teams to deliver impactful work.

Outside of design, you’ll find me wandering Brooklyn with my corgi, dabbling in new workout classes, passionately cheering for my teams, or hunting for a margarita that rivals The Wayland’s.
