Behind The Artistry

Hey, I'm Mike, a versatile UI/UX Designer and Brand Strategist based just outside of Philadelphia, PA.

 

I've been drawn to creativity and branding as long as I can remember, Today, , that passion shows up through digital experiences, brand identities, websites, interfaces, and more. I enjoy solving problems visually and creating work that's as functional as it is memorable.

 

Here you'll find a collection of recent projects, including work for Horizon Coasching & Consulting, The RAF Group and album design for indie-rock artist Hakosuka. I'm always exploring new ideas, so this portfolio is constantly evolving. Stay tuned.

Skills and Interests

As a digital designer I take pride in infusing art with technology. My work spans UI/UX design, brand identity, visual design, creative strategy, and front-end implementation.

 

I'm always exploring new ways to improve my craft. Lately, I've been experimenting with motion design, animation, and interactive web experiences that add interactive depth to my work.

 

Outside of design, creativity continues to shape my life. Music is a constant companion while I work keeping me in the zone. I often listen to Lo-Fi beats during work hours. 

 

And in my off hours, I find inspiration through live concerts, travel, photography, hiking, and discovering new places. Whether I'm exploring a city or walking a quiet trail, I enjoy experiences that spark fresh ideas and remind me to see the world from a different perspective.

I geek out on football. I listen to podcasts covering the NFL nearly every day. My favorite team is the Philadelphia Eagles. Go Birds!

I’m drawn to fast-paced competitive games where teamwork, strategy, and skill make every match feel different. Lately, I've been playing Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, and Madden.

Snowboarding is my passion, nothing gives me more of a thrill; I dream of shredding the Palisades Tahoe slopes in the Sierra Nevada mountains one day.
