Sasha Whittington

With 12+ years of experience at the intersection of marketing strategy, team leadership, and UX/UI, I bring a rare blend of vision and execution. I’ve built and led high-performing marketing teams, launched revenue-driving campaigns, and shaped brand experiences that not only look beautiful but feel intuitive and drive results. From full-funnel content strategy and digital engagement to wireframes and user flows, I connect the dots between what people need and how businesses grow. Whether I’m mentoring a team, building a brand, or mapping a user journey, my goal is the same: create thoughtful, impactful experiences that move people and metrics.

Passionate about blending data, creativity, and technology to elevate brands.
