Hi, hello, welcome!

I’m Ashley Milhollin, but most people just call me “Mil.” (A short version of my last name with an entirely too long story attached to it.)

I’m an award-winning, award-losing, award-judging Creative Director with experience across a wide range of brands and categories—from Target and Taco Bell to tuna and toilet paper. (And plenty more that don’t alliterate quite as nicely: cars, booze, posh British grocery stores, massive fintech brands, femtech start-ups, iconic video game franchises and nerdy streaming platforms, to name a few.)

I’m not afraid to roll up my sleeves, burn the midnight oil or use idioms in the “About Me” part of my website. Can’t help it. I love words!

…Except passwords.

Pfft. I mean, I’d probably use something stupid simple and not creative at all—like “PASSWORD”—for anything password protected on my site.

Professionally, I’m so over cynicism. Roll your eyes, but I do genuinely believe our industry can have a positive place in the world. And at the barest of minimums, we are honor-bound to make it not suck.

Feel the same? Let’s chat. Even if I’m not available, I probably know some incredible folks I can set you up with. Also, I just like making new friends.

P.S. If you’re a pro-choice org in need of some pro-bono creative help, I love taking on that kind of work when I can. Drop me a line. I can’t promise I’ll always have bandwidth, but I’d love to connect and see what’s possible.
