Hello, I’m Micah

I’m a graphic designer
and art director

I’m a California-born, Utah-based graphic designer and art director with over 20 years of experience. I focus primarily on motion and web design, but my work has spanned nearly every area of graphic and interactive design.

I approach each project with a focus on meeting its objectives by crafting a message tailored to its intended audience in its specific context. I do my best work making complex ideas clear, creating unforgettable visuals, and crafting intuitive experiences.
