Mike is a Chicago-based designer and artist with over 14 years of experience shaping visual identities across agencies and in-house teams. His creative foundation was built on the bold visual language of golden-era hip-hop and punk vinyl—raw, expressive artwork that ignited a lifelong obsession with form, texture, and typographic attitude. Equally inspired by the precision of Swiss design, his work strikes a balance between structure and spontaneity, resulting in a visual voice that feels both intentional and instinctive.
