Mike Shaughnessy

Mike started his career as an Art Director at Khonke Hanneken/Milwaukee where his scrappy, smartly designed portfolio caught the eye of one particularly visionary east coast Creative Director (Tim!) at Mullen in Wenham, MA. He interviewed, got the gig, and soon rose to Associate Creative Director.

A stint at Arnold on Activision and Progressive followed. Soon thereafter, he took a Creative Director job at Hill Holliday where, for 12 years, he conceived and oversaw work for Cadillac, Major League Baseball, Liberty Mutual, Bank of America, Dunkin’ Donuts, Great Wolf Lodge Resorts, Cracker Barrel, Fireball Whisky, and Frontier Communications.

He joined HeyLet’sGo in November of 2019 as Executive Creative Director/Head of Design.

Mike’s work has been recognized by One Show, Communication Arts, MPA Kelly awards, Hatch, Clio, and Lurzer’s Archive among many others. He also is a Co-Founder, Partner and Creative Director at Bent Water Brewing, which he’s helped take from startup to one of the most ubiquitous craft beer brands in New England.

He is a father of three, two of which are twins, so he currently has absolutely no outside interests of any kind, whatsoever.
