i’m michael!

The world needs more art. I’m not always the best at articulating myself so here’s my attempt at it. I’m a recent graduate from Northeastern University’s class of 2024 with a bachelor’s of science in behavioral neuroscience and design. My design concentration focused on graphic design. I like the idea of creating in a very intentional way, as someone who gravitates towards physical mediums, graphic design helped shape me into the thoughtful multi-media designer I am today.

Growing up as a queer hispanic-american person in suburban NY just north of the city, I desperately craved artistry and passion that my hometown lacked thus my life as a designer was born. I love green, bright colors, the ocean, music (Amy Winehouse, Willow, and Beyoncé to name a few), and small details. It’s the little things that help paint a full portrait. As I continue on my journey as a designer, I'm excited to explore new creative avenues and connect with fellow enthusiasts. Whether you're here to explore my portfolio, share design ideas, or simply say hello, I'm always eager to connect and collaborate. Let's embark on this creative journey together!
