Ash Ivory is quietly causing a stir in the product world, and ‘product world’ really means Meanjin. When Ash isn’t shuffling product ideas into reality, it’s hard to say what you’ll find Ash doing, but it’s likely to be tech related in some way.

BIOGRAPHY:

Ash’s journey from a fresh Business Development Manager at Outfit.io to Head of Product roles at various scale-ups was less like a meteoric rise and more like a really determined hike – complete with a few coffee breaks. As an aside, Ash loves coffee and hikes.

At their core, Ash is someone who loves blending everything they know, and will come to know, into an elegant way forward, no matter the challenge. When Ash isn’t shuffling product ideas into reality, it’s hard to say what you’ll find Ash doing, but it’s likely to be tech related in some way.

If you’re into low-key chats about innovative ideas, the joys of a well-brewed cup, or the merits of LEGO as an adult – Ash is your person.

ASH’S WORK WITH TECH ADOPTION:

I’ve always been drawn to technology, but in the classic I didn’t know it way, I didn’t know it. My thinking with tech is that it should support and enhance whatever problem we are solving with it, not just be a ‘novelty’.

AN INTERESTING FACT ABOUT ASH:

I’m left handed and I’m still surprised at how few left handers are around!
