Mike Anderson \\ Visual Designer

ABOUT MIKE

I solve communications problems from a multi-discipinary perspective.

I know audience from many different angles. After earning my English Literature degree from a top 10 liberal arts college, I began my career as a content writer and marketer. I wrote full-time for NerdWallet in its infancy and executed on the company’s most successful SEO marketing strategy to date. Later, I joined Upworthy as a Content Strategist and, for five years, worked in Content Design at Pandora.

Three years ago, I launched my freelance career as a visual designer. I’d studied art in college, and with my writing background, design offered the perfect blend of visual craft, textual storytelling, and audience analysis. In April 2022, I joined Landed as their second design hire. I focus primarily on marketing and product design at Landed, and I've regularly received praise for my ability to traverse the intersection of interface and content design.
