Mike Tully lives and works in New York. He works independently and in collaboration with artists, architects, institutions, and publishers on works spanning artifacts, exhibitions, publications, sound, websites, and writing. In 2022, he graduated with an MFA from the Yale School of Art.
I have a career in wealth advisory with a specific emphasis on guiding clients who wish to invest their portfolios in line with their values. My niche expertise is investing in problem-solving companies, e.g, climate solutions, energy efficiency, social equity, food and food systems. I also work in urban park restoration and design.
A Design Strategist with a focus on qualitative research, I have extensive global experience gathering and translating consumer insights that improve design on both emotional and functional levels. I champion users within the innovation process to create better experiences at home, work and play, while helping key stakeholders align on successful business strategies. Lately I've partnered with designers from every discipline to create a series of visual brand languages for a world-leading surgical robotics company.
The Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum published my book, "Design for Repair: Things Can Be Fixed," under the DesignFile imprint in May 2015. Metropolis, Fast Company, and Core77 have published my writing recently.
