Michael has been an award winning creative for over a decade at advertising and direct marketing agencies in the U.S., Europe and Australia.
With one degree in journalism and another in fine art, Michael is passionate not only about what his client's messages say, but how they are presented. During his career he has held positions in top agencies as a copywriter, art director, photographer, director of photography, and as a creative director. It is this unique background as a true advertising/marketing creative (a literate jack-of-all-trades) that would make him a great fit for your project.
Michael's work has been featured in global advertisements for such clients as BMW, Fidelity Investments, Ray-Ban Sunglasses and Pepsi. His writing and photographs have appeared on the pages on National Geographic, Condé Nast, New York Times and Wall Street Journal on topics such as travel, healthcare, education and technology.
Michael has been awarded both national and international honors for his work in traditional and digital media. He constantly strives to learn, and pushes himself to increase his skills, such as when recently completing a creative writing course at Harvard University, or working in the field of medical academia where he edits research papers, grant proposals, talks, posters, patent proposals, etc. for non-native English speaking scientists and clinicians.
When Michael is not writing, designing or shooting for his clients, you can be sure to find him traveling (he's lived in six countries and visited over 50 others), enjoying nature (he worked in Yellowstone for three seasons) or outside running where he is training for the Boston Marathon.
