Mike has more than fifty years of experience practicing the craft he loves. Most of it as executive creative director and managing partner at Keiler & Company, a CADC hall of fame marketing communications firm.

The Keiler creative team created national advertising campaigns for PUMA, The Stanley Works, Lockheed Martin, Deloitte, Sikorsky, NYU, Perkin-Elmer and many more. The team’s other projects included annual reports, corporate identity, brand building, digital and social media as well as television commercials.

Mike is a past president of The Connecticut Art Directors Club and founding president of AIGA CT. In 2010 he was named an AIGA CT Fellow, one of only three Connecticut designers ever so honored.

Currently he considers himself very fortunate to teach the Civic Design class at the Hartford Art School. Civic Design is a student run studio providing marketing, fund raising and branding solutions to the non-profit community. In the past ten years we have worked with more than seventy non-profits in our community.
