Hi, it's Mikkel
Self-taught, self-critical and a little too fond of the small details.

I'm Mikkel, 22, based in Odense in Denmark. I've been messing about in Photoshop, Logic Pro and WordPress for as long as I can remember, and by the end of business school I had eight failed companies behind me. Every one of them taught me more about brand, visual communication and making something that means anything than a book ever could. During my gap year I worked at the local bowling centre, where I couldn't stop criticising their website and social media. I was told I “probably couldn't do better myself”. A couple of months later I was marketing director at the parent company.
I get absorbed until three hours have gone by, and that's usually where the good work shows up. Some projects are pure graphics, some are code, and plenty land somewhere in between. I keep people in the loop, so they always know what's happening to their money. And I don't go around announcing what I can do. It's in the work.
