Designer Spotlight: Michael Beukema
Ever since starting as an intern at our company in 2008, Michael Beukema has been a key ingredient to the Squires creative team. As Senior Art Director, Michael provides sound direction and insights to the design team while maintaining a design workload of project types across print and digital media for a diverse array of industry types. Michael’s work has been recognized by Communication Arts, Graphis, Print Magazine, HOW, the Dallas Society of Visual Communications, and the Art Director’s Club of Houston. Among his many strong attributes, Michael has an artful sense of color, a deep technical acumen of interactive design, and a knack for creating incredible logos and corporate identities. He’s also a bottomless trough of 80s movie knowledge, an avid music fan, cat lover, father, and a student of the turntable (in no particular order).
