About Me
I’m Mike Mirabal, a designer and creative technologist focused on building
meaningful digital experiences. My work blends brand strategy, UX, and product
design to create tools and visuals that connect with real people.
I thrive in the messy middle of complex problems, where technical constraints
meet human needs and business goals collide with user expectations.
Whether I'm leading cross-functional teams through high-pressure sprints or diving deep
into user research, I approach every project with curiosity and a bias toward action.
I believe the best solutions often emerge from understanding systems holistically
rather than optimizing individual pieces, and I'm equally comfortable sketching
wireframes in Figma as I am troubleshooting code or facilitating strategy workshops.
My background spans everything from bartending to brewery management, which taught
me that great design isn't just about aesthetics—it's about creating experiences
that work seamlessly under pressure and scale with real-world constraints.
