Testimonials

Michael is a confident and persuasive creative director. He understood his product and the market and presented options that captured both succinctly in an intentional and systematic way. He was able to facilitate in a split room and deliver agreeable outcomes and impactful rebrands.

I’ve been utilizing Michael’s creative services for over a decade and rely on his solution oriented approach to design for all my media and film projects. He is able to execute our team’s vision with skill and expertise ensuring we reach our audience with clarity and artistic finesse.

Michael is one of the most fun designers I have had the pleasure to work with. All his designs were on point, and he always considered implementation from an engineering and reusability perspective. He was both knowledgeable about the mining industry, and was a reliable source of knowledge when I needed to understand more about the project.

Michael is a talented and pragmatic designer. He takes a business first approach, while ensuring the work is as future-proof as possible. He seeks to understand the needs of both the stakeholders and engineers. On a personal note, it was a lot of fun working with him on MINING.COM.

Many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view.
