Overview
In the past, I've worked as a book cover designer for Write Bloody Publishing, America's largest independent poetry publishing house, a designer for NPR’s Austin affiliates KUT and KUTX, Gap Online, an editorial illustrator for online publications in New York City, and the Design Director for The Democratic National Committee. Currently, I'm a Senior Art Director at Bully Pulpit Interactive.
But I wasn't always a designer, in the past, I've also worked as an interactive producer and developer for great companies like PUNY Entertainment, Allen Interactions, and Carlson Marketing Worldwide. These experiences have been invaluable to me as a designer who works with a diverse portfolio of clients every day. I prioritize clear and extensive communication and managing expectations with everyone that I work with.
In my spare time, you can catch me writing for Boogiemanja, a sketch comedy collective in NYC.

It was a pleasure working with Ashley. I had a vague idea of what I wanted, and she helped focus the project to clarify not only what I wanted, but what I needed. Then, she presented me with covers that not only met but exceeded my expectations. I will definitely use Ashley for my next project.

Working with Ashley was so easy and very successful. I love my new cover and can’t wait to get my future covers designed by her as well.
