It all began in the early 2000’s working in boutique retail management. Michael made the jump to the corporate office freelancing for Abercrombie & Fitch as a corporate artist then later full time as a Studio Manager for a fashion studio that produced the Abercrombie Premium label. Combining management experience and his love for Professional Photography Michael joined Zulily.com, a Seattle based company, as their Studio Manager and opened their first satellite studio in Columbus, Ohio. Pushing limits and achieving sales goals the studio grew from one set in a conference room to 20 sets in a 20,000 square foot building. Managing a team consisting of Photographers, Stylists, Copywriters, Photo Editors, and Operations Professionals. The studio scaled to meet the demand of company growth from a start up to a public traded company.
