Hello, I’m Michael Buckley, a design professional with 20 years of experience. Over the years, I’ve worn many hats—Creative Director, Graphic Designer, Brand Strategist, UX/UI Practitioner, Front-End Developer, and Digital Marketer.
For nearly 15 years as Head of Design at Harborside Press, I led our in-house agency and publishing design teams. Later, as Director of Brand Strategy at Bloom Media, I worked with high-profile clients to refine their positioning, UX, and visual presence. I bring a unique blend of strategy, creativity, and technical precision to craft impactful digital experiences.
Currently, I work as a design consultant specializing in branding and UX engineering. I’m also an Adjunct Professor at Long Island University, where I teach courses in Illustration, InDesign, Digital Production, Web Development, and Media Literacy.
