Hi! I’m Michael Bottorff, a creative director based in Louisville, Kentucky. I have over 20 years experience in graphic design, photography, creative strategy, team leadership, product development, identity branding and customer relations.

I believe creatives are curious by nature and are born problem solvers who feel deeply about challenging the status quo. We are molded by life experiences and each bring a unique interpretation to solving problems.

I believe the best teams are built on empowering people to achieve their professional goals which fuels team unity and trust. I have worked with clients large and small, from small start-ups needing a logo, to a long career working for a company with more than 5,000 locations in 45 countries and territories around the world.

As an art and creative director, I have grown brands and told the stories of companies in ways that change behavior and belief. Whether in-house or in-studio, my creative approach is simple: hire the best talent, promote healthy collaboration, and exceed the clients’ expectations.

Let me help tell your brand’s story.
