Meet Mitch Shepherd
Howdy! My name is Mitch, and I make things look good. I'm originally from a sleepy farm town located right outside of Columbus, Ohio. As a youngster growing up in a small town, I naturally had the itch to spread my wings and move away for college. So when the time came, I packed up the ol' futon and headed north to the frozen lands of Akron, Ohio. It was there that I discovered my passion for all things design and chose to get my B.F.A in Graphic Design from the University of Akron. Go Zips!
After graduation, I knew that the impending doom of the real world was soon to come, so I gave myself two options: (1) stay put and continue to endure the ice cold tundra, or (2) to set sail in search of new lands and warmer climates. So, after careful consideration and some research, I packed up once again and hit the road. With degree in hand and North Carolina circled on my map, I landed right here in the beautiful City of Oaks. After gaining that "fresh out of school" experience and getting my professional networking feelers out there, I have been fortunate to make a home here at ABT.
When I'm not concerned with the latest design trends and hottest fonts, I try to keep active by playing in coed sporting leagues and hiking on local trails. I have a wide range of tastes when it comes to music and movies, and always enjoy discovering new works. Aside from all the artsy pop culture stuff that we Designers concern ourselves with, I am also a huge Ohio State football fan! During football season, you will be hard pressed to find me anywhere but sitting on my couch either cursing the football gods or praising them. I'm also a pretty big NBA fan; and even though a certain someone decided to "take their talents to South Beach", I remain true to my Cavs.
