Founder & Creative Director
Meet Avery
As founder of 10 Atelier, Avery brings a unique creative lens and more than a decade of experience working across design and fine art institutions in New York, the UK and Atlanta. She received her BA in Art History from Barnard College at Columbia University and pursued a Master’s degree in the history of decorative arts at the Bard Graduate Center in New York. Her professional background includes roles in design PR, working at luxury shelter magazines, supporting events at the New York City Ballet as well as executing projects for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Morgan Library and Waddesdon Manor, a National Trust property in the UK. Her passion for language, business strategy, thinking creatively and defining meaningful details are pillars of her leadership and work style. For Avery, the greatest joy of her professional life is building and nurting relationships – with editors, designers, industry professionals, and of course, clients. Outside of the office, she is an avid gardener, loves to cook, host an intimate dinner party and is learning how to fly fish with her husband.
Meet Neal
Vice President
Atlanta-born and raised, Neal Mitchell grew up in a family that believed the best moments happen around a table—whether over a home-cooked meal, a great cocktail, or a conversation that stretches long into the evening. The youngest of three sisters, she developed an early appreciation for hospitality, entertaining, and creating experiences that make people feel at home. After earning her degree in Consumer Journalism from The University of Georgia, Neal nearly traded Atlanta for Italy to attend culinary school before the pandemic altered those plans. The influence of food, travel, and design remains woven throughout her work. Today, as Vice President of 10 Atelier, Neal brings a distinctive blend of strategic thinking, cultural curiosity, and relationship-building to every client engagement. With deep connections across the design, art, and lifestyle worlds, she is known for crafting meaningful narratives that resonate with both editors and audiences alike.
Meet Ashton
Digital Marketing Manager
Ashton helps clients bring their brands to life across both digital and print. From email marketing campaigns and custom collateral to full-scale rebrands and visual identity development, she specializes in creating thoughtful, cohesive brand touchpoints that are as strategic as they are beautiful. Equal parts designer and marketer, Ashton brings a thoughtful, detail-oriented approach to every project. A born-and-raised Atlantan and third-generation Auburn University graduate, Ashton earned her BFA in Graphic Design from Auburn, where she sharpened her eye for thoughtful design and strategic storytelling. Her lifelong appreciation for print—fueled by years of collecting everything from handwritten notes and postcards to ticket stubs and beautifully designed packaging—continues to inform her work today. Outside of 10 Atelier, Ashton co-founded Ross Street Paper Co., a stationery brand built alongside two college friends, where she channels her love of paper, print, and meaningful correspondence into stationery that proves some messages are worth sending the old-fashioned way.
