Michael Wypasek

Michael Wypasek used to skulk around quiet corners worried about issues like the societal abuse of authority. But after a while, he got tired of that and got his degree from Kent State in Advertising Copywriting, with strong concentrations in graphic design and marketing. Maybe growing up in the Art/Advertising business in Cleveland influenced that. He became a studio production manager for over ten years. As a Creative Director, he built the successful internal creative group at Venture Lighting. He later left Venture's Director of Marketing Communications position to refocus on communicating through graphics for a variety of clients.
