My name is Michelle (friends call me Mick) and I live in New England with a big, furry, photobombing Maine coon cat named Layla. My full-time gig is as Art Director for the Patriots and Patriots Football Weekly. I have 25+ years experience in print design and 15+ years experience dabbling around with websites. I'm a graduate of Keefe Tech’s Graphic Arts program (where I still serve as Chairman of the Graphics Advisory Board) as well as a graduate of RISD’s Web Design & Development program.

I like to squeeze as much productivity, creativity, and any other ivities I can out of each of my 24-hours. I read a tweet that resonated with me so much it hangs on my cubicile wall. I try to accept this challenge everyday...
The Beatles recorded their debut LP, ‘Please Please Me,’ in one 10-hr day. So. You know. Have a productive day.

Ever the nosy neighbor, this particular tree seemed to always peek over the fence to check out what was happening on my little patio – a behavior which [...]
The adventures of Draftman
Every year for our Patriots Football Weekly pre-Draft issue, we like to have some sort of design “theme” to it – this year we chose movies. After much discussion as to what to do with the cover, we decided to spoof the movie Superman and do a sort of movie poster look along those lines, [...]
