About the author
Mike Monteiro
16 books185 followersSome say the clothes make the man. Others say it’s opinions. Co-founder of Mule, Mike likes to have a bet both ways. His 2012 book, Design is a Job, was a love letter to hard work, self-awareness, and the importance of a good tailor.
Mike cultivates his reputation around being serious about design, human rights, a damn fine joke, and the Phillies. His philosophy of supportive antagonism helps Mule create great internal and external projects. He has given talks about the responsibility of designers in client relationships at conferences such as CreativeMornings, TYPO, and An Event Apart.
Mike received his BA in Fine Art from the Tyler School of Art at Temple University, and his MFA in Graphic Design from University of Texas, Austin.

design evangelism is tiresome and also this reminds me of my brief stint at an evil tech company when i needed money and i was forced to design stuff that actively hurt people like an employee termination form that would immediately go on to be used on around 20 thousand people (including me (hahaha))
