Michelle Asp's diverse career path has led her from bartender to comic book colorist to reality TV producer. While these stops may seem varied, she'll be the first to tell you that the diversity prepared her well for her current role as director of creative technology with United Future, a digital agency specializing in experiential-media products.
Working in a digital field that is experiencing a nearly constant evolution, Michelle is dedicated to pushing herself both creatively and technically — whether it's researching industry trends or jumping into new programming languages. It's the same fierce drive that led her to realize that in a male-dominated field sometimes a woman has to assert herself and proactively pursue opportunities and leadership roles. Sometimes being a woman means asking for what you want.
It might be a challenge, but Michelle is proof that it's certainly one worth taking.
