About

I’m Emily Ashman, founder of Stanza.
With more than twenty years of experience in journalism and content marketing—including editorial roles at OK! Magazine and Tatler —I’ve spent my career mastering the art of the story.
After founding and selling Kleio, a leading content agency in Hong Kong, I created Stanza to offer something different: senior-level strategy without the agency layers.
At Stanza, you work directly with me. I develop your strategy, hand-pick specialists for your project, and ensure every deliverable meets rigorous editorial standards. You get high-level thinking and seamless execution—minus the overhead.
My philosophy is simple: I use journalism-grade storytelling to build authentic connections that build loyalty.
