Colleagues describe him as "Michael is probably the hardest working person I've met in this business.
Usually you hear of people either working really hard, or working really smart. Michael does both.
He's also one of the most talented Art Directors I've had the pleasure of working with. The man is truly, truly gifted. He believes in doing the right thing by the work and is willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen.
And, in what would seem to be an impossibility given those attributes, Michael is one of the nicest, most humble people you will ever run across in this business (or likely any other).
In the time I've worked alongside Michael he has grown from Art Director to Creative Director and has taken to his new role with the same ferocious work ethic that has been the hallmark of his art direction.
I'm humbled to get to work with him." and "Talented, patient, thoughtful and driven, Michael possesses a proven propensity for making good things great and great things even better.
He's a creative's creative, collaborates beautifully with others (even those account peeps) and can crack killer concepts to all fields with astonishing regularity. He doesn't run from messy battles, nor does he shy away from going numerous rounds for the sake of cracking the code. He simply doesn't give up. Ever. There's no AD on the planet I'd rather march into battle with. Plus, he's a true gent in a business where that quality is sorely lacking. Am I his single biggest fan? No. He's amassed tons of them.
He gets a solid "11"."
