Since graduating from Art Center College of Design in 1992, Michael has been continually involved in numerous areas of visual design including illustration, print design, entertainment media and most recently digital photography and photo manipulation. A vibrant sense of color and a clean, clearly communicative sense of composition are evident throughout his highly diverse portfolio - sensibilities that were established early as a painter/illustrator. Recently, Michael received his Master of Arts in Theology from Fuller Seminary with a focus on Worship, Theology and the Arts - an investigation of the cross-section of the arts, theology and liturgy that provides the historical foundation of arts in Western culture. Today, Michael continues to work across a broad spectrum of visual design that is diverse in both subject matter and clientele and maintains a deep ethic of inclusiveness and openness in his world view.
