Asher Jay

National Geographic Emerging Explorer Asher Jay uses design, multimedia arts, literature and lectures to inspire global action to combat illegal wildlife trafficking. Over the years, she has produced several graphic campaigns; written poems, stories and articles; pieced together collections and canvases; and spoken at conferences, academic institutions and private salons to evoke hope and action in favor of a wild future. All of her work is anchored by the deep commitment she harbors toward the realization of a collective future.
