Since his early years, Mike loved to draw when I was younger, creating his own comic book characters in third grade. This fascination with creating artwork continued up through high school where he took his first digital art classes. He went on to college to major in graphic design, learning the fundamentals of creating effective logos and layouts.

​

He landed his first full-time job in 2012 as the in-house graphic designer for a company that sold promotional products. This job involved creating and recreating artwork in vector format.

 

In 2014, he moved on to become a production artist a screen printing shop, focusing on color separation and virtual proofing.

​

The experience at these jobs gave him the experience and knowledge in order to get his first freelance gig in 2015, thus starting Mike Irizarry Designs.

​

When he's not working on designs, he enjoys playing video games and watching baseball.
