Asa Miller :: Designer Extraordinaire

Asa Miller grew up on a small island in the San Juans, in northwest Washington state. The child of a graphic designer and a Montessori teacher, he was raised in a very artistic and open environment that fostered creativity. His mother grew the family's food in a huge vegetable garden and baked bread from scratch. His father was one of the founders of the Guemes Island Environmental Trust, a grassroots organization dedicated to the protection of the island.

In 1984 Joseph Miller bought a computer, and Asa was fascinated by it. He learned to use it, and from that point on, computers were a huge part of his life. At age 16 he put together an animated presentation for a local web and graphic design firm and was hired to do web design and pre-press work. He next went to work for a video game developer who specialized educational childrens games.

At age 19 he moved to Portland Oregon, where he teamed up with Sean Lawson to form Vivacity Productions, a web design firm. From their office in downtown Portland, Asa did work for major ad agencies and local businesses.

After several years Asa left Vivacity Productions to do freelance work, specializing in non-profit and political causes.

He currently lives in Portland.
