Creative Director from Budapest working in New York.

I’m Verena Michelitsch, an independent designer and art director from Austria by way of New York City. I specialize in conceptualizing and creating unique visual expressions, spanning graphic design, art direction, illustration, pattern, editorial, and digital design. I’ve had the pleasure to work with an array of international studios and clients, including Apple, Nasa/JPL, Facebook, Red Bull, The Smithsonian and Opening Ceremony. I work from my studio in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

I’m a creative producer and writer who has worked with artists and brands around the world, including Chobani, adidas, The North Face, Stella Artois, Absolut Vodka, Audi, and Apple. I’m currently VP of Creative Production at Chobani, where I’m helping shape the in-house agency model of the future. In my free time, I write poetry and film scripts, and I’m currently developing a script about my family’s immigration story and their escape from a civil war. My work has been recognized at award shows such as Cannes Lions, D&AD, The One Show, ADC, and FWA, and has been featured in publications including Fast Company, Rolling Stone, The Wall Street Journal, and The New York Times.

I am an Illustrator and Graphic Designer in Brooklyn, New York. I was born in Calcutta, India and studied Electrical Engineering in college. After working for a decade as an Engineer as well as an Analyst/Programmer in Information Technology, with a not so secret passion for Architecture and Interior Design, I changed careers to find a job that was "more creative" and fulfilling. I went back to school in New York City to study and subsequently work as a graphic designer. Currently, I am pursuing Illustration full time out of my studio in Bushwick, Brooklyn.
