Hi, I’m Ashley Monda.
I’ve spent the last decade navigating two worlds that often feel at odds.
In one world — my years at Refinery29, BuzzFeed, and Google— I honed in the science of effective, scroll-stopping content. I saw how data, measurable goals, and rigorous strategy can act as a high-octane fuel for a brand. I learned how to look at data and see the heartbeat of an audience.
In the other world — the one I share with my husband, built on 35+ years of combined experience in filmmaking and music production— I live for the art. I know that if a piece of content doesn’t have a soul, no amount of data can save it.
At Papereverie Productions, I bridge that gap.
I’m a Jill-of-many-trades who believes that strategy should never be a cage for creativity; it should be its foundation. My goal isn't just to make something that looks beautiful or sounds professional—it’s to produce content that ladders to a goal without losing its humanity.
I’m here to prove that you don’t have to choose between a data-driven strategy and a heart-centered story. You just need a producer who knows how to speak both languages.
My Approach
What began as a passion project has evolved into something more. We’re proud of where we’ve been and even more excited for what’s ahead. What sets us apart isn’t just our process—it’s the intention behind it. We take time to understand, explore, and create with purpose at every turn.
Data-Fueled Decision-Making
Insights guide the creative so the "what" can be as creative and experimental as possible..
Hardcore Executional Rigor
Whether it’s viral social content or independent filmmaking, I lean on three decades of Papereverie expertise to ensure the technical execution is flawless.
Seasoned Intuition
I’ve taken part in more than a 1,000 pieces of content built for young audiences. The best of it landed so well because it was authentic, authoritative, and trustworthy.
