Hello. My name is...
Mike , - The Boss
Graphic designer, marketeer, surfer and general daredevil, Mike created Cloud 9 way back in 1994.
Mike's background is in actionsport and publishing. He has a reputation for creating ideas from even the least promising of briefs, and an attention to detail that you’ll find reassuring.
If you’re looking for creativity, flexibility, and a genuine desire to help you succeed, with a bizarrely unorthodox approach you won’t be disappointed - If you're looking for a man in a suit and tie, you may be.
