About Ashli Nixon

I spent over a decade working as a designer, developer and creative director in both agency and corporate settings, designing and building experiences for large retailers and Fortune 500 companies like Bath & Body Works, DSW, Abercrombie & Fitch, Kellogg\'s, McDonald\'s and more. But I found myself continually drawn back into the deeply personal and passionate work of creating Fortune 500-worthy experiences for tiny businesses, and find the most joy working closely with entrepreneurs and dreamers who are equally excited to see it come to life. As managing partner of Basis, you’ll find me guiding clients on digital strategy, designing stunning ecommerce sites and developing custom themes in Shopify. Getting to experiment with a magical mix of design, code and business savvy (alongside amazing clients!) feels like a dream each and every day.
