I am a graphic and interactive designer committed to fully realizing the bold ideas of passionate people through distinctive and complete branding solutions.

Michael Sowa…Who is that?

A bold designer, a nature lover, a board game enthusiast

I'm a graphic designer focused on building unique and complete brands for passionate people with bold ideas. My strength is in navigating the fine balance between clean and considered design in order to craft conceptually-driven and timeless identities.

When I’m not at my desk designing, I’m probably out hiking a trail or exploring new spots from my Philadelphia Garden Capital Passport — Morris Arboretum and Longwood Gardens have definitely become favorites. You’ll also find me getting dragged around the neighborhood by my Samoyed, Saratoga, who got this idea that he is in charge of our walks. On days when the weather keeps me inside, I’m usually playing a board game or working on a puzzle. And when I’m feeling competitive, I’m out playing with my local pickleball league (we aren't very good…).
