Artist Bio

Born and raised in Illinois, Mike started his fascination with Disney by watching the Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday night television. The creativity of the stories sparked his interest in art, which became his favorite pastime throughout his childhood.

While earning a BA degree in Commercial Graphics and Design, he was chosen to help open the Disney-MGM Studios by participating in the Walt Disney World® College Program. After his six-month stay, Mike returned to Southern Illinois University to complete his degree. Upon graduation, he returned to Orlando to seek out a creative position at Disney. He landed a job at Resort Design creating print collateral for the Disney Resorts. A few years later, opportunities outside of Disney called and he left but returned to Disney in 1996 and has been designing for Disney Design Group ever since. In his current roll, Mike manages a talented group of artists that create merchandise for all the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts.
