Hello there! My name is Michael Russell, and I’m a creative professional or let’s say, a man of many trades. But above all, I am a graphic designer and art director based in Augsburg, Bavaria.

My journey through diverse industries has enriched me with a broad spectrum of experience across a variety of roles. From selling baked goods, sports equipment, and militaria to working as a chef, pizzaiolo, and even as a certified domestic manager, I have worn many hats. After a long way, I decided to give my visual creativity a chance and intensified my previous autodidactic learning of graphic programs and completed a career change program in graphic design. For the past decade, my main focus has been on media design, graphic design, project management, and art direction.

Whether in advertising and public relations agencies or corporate communications, I have passionately managed cross-channel concepts and campaigns, branding and quality assurance, project management, strategy development, and evaluation. My expertise spans the creative and the strategic, turning fresh ideas into impactful results. Discover what’s possible when precision meets passion.
