Hi, I’m Mike and I’m a Creative Director / Art Director currently based in Toronto. Using creativity to solve problems is what I love to do the most. My work has been recognized by Cannes, One Show, D&AD and most recently by Fast Company’s prestigious World Changing Ideas. Since joining Citizen Relations, my work has led the agency to win its first PR Campaign of the Year followed by a 2021 Bronze and 2023 Gold PR Agency Of The Year. I’ve also been ranked #12 top Art Director in Canada by Strategy Creative Report Card. Outside of 9-5, I’m a proud father and superhero to my wonderful toddler.
