Michelle is an award-winning Sr. Art Director originally from Texas and was raised all over the USA. Over the course of the last 20 years, Michelle has worked in major cities like New York, Los Angeles, and Miami. While in New York and Los Angeles, Michelle played an integral role in the creative transformation of JWT (Inside), part of the world's fourth largest advertising agency.
Currently stationed in South Florida, Michelle continues to bring her design knowledge and experience to the forefront. She has proven leadership experience and can successfully manage a team while being equally creative independently.
The eclectic mix of cities and professional settings have allowed Michelle to expand her reach on a wide array of projects ranging from recruitment, brand identity, user-experience design, photography as well as mobile and APP development. Michelle, admittedly, has a soft spot for print, but enjoys the freedom that interactive/digital media allows.
Through her extensive experiences and travels, Michelle has acquired great design and typographical knowledge, an appreciation of wine and craft beer, and met talented design comrades. With an aim for simplicity and an over-achieving nature, Michelle creates communicative design backed by smart, conceptual thinking and sketches—lots and lots of sketches.
