Ashley Basilgo
A Design Professional Who Values Results
What a blast!
I know I’ve worked with some great people when I can look back on my project successes as not only fantastic results, but as a fun time! That’s the best experience - team members who value straightforward feedback, clients who tell it like it is, and the relief of sharing a solid laugh when things don’t go quite as you predicted (because things never go quite as you predicted!)

Specialties
Project Management
Print & Production Specialist
I have 5 years of project management experience in print production. I have a long history of completing design projects, specifically in the print industry, from start to finish. That means taking all necessary steps with the client including vision, pricing, and scheduling, through colleague teamwork processes and constant hands-on collaboration, all the way to finishing, fulfillment, and delivery. This process, which has become so familiar to me, requires patience, flexibility, and superb communication skills.
Systems Creation
Show your Work
Consistency is maintained by setting up working systems which enable actions to be completed in a similar way each time. Systems show workflow, enhance productivity, assist with Data analysis, ensure reliability, and allow me to pass on knowledge in a way that is simple to digest. Systems also allow me and the companies I work with find holes in our game - an invaluable asset.
Communication
The secret to being a team player
Nourished since my days as a University Newspaper Intern Reporter, I’ve honed the art of communication through a decade of professional back-and-forth. I have not only perfected the art of writing an email, I’m also a millennial who has no fear of in-person eye contact and who loves public speaking! When I have questions, I ask. When I have solutions, I share. I’m up front, straightforward, and I love to have fun while I learn new things.
After years of working as a Graphic Designer and Production Specialist, I decided to take the leap into UX Design and Content Creation. See below some of my favorite projects from the past.
