Michael Pilla’s Summary

Design is a communications medium. My focus has been to use design as a means to achieve and advance marketing goals without sacrificing aesthetics (i.e. it has too say something AND look nice)

I have applied that attitude to my over 30 year career in marketing communication. Before the internet, I designed and or directed the creation of two national magazines for teens, direct mail pieces, packaging (for micro breweries, home videos), and corporate communications.

My company has developed internet marketing campaigns for companies of all sizes in a variety of fields including: real estate, Broadway/Off-Broadway shows, cultural festivals, professional services and health care.
