NEW YORK, USA // Some people follow the beaten path. Mitch Monson carves his own—sometimes on a backcountry snowboard in remote parts of the world, sometimes at the helm of a nuclear attack submarine (true story). But mostly, he’s been blazing trails in the world of design, branding, and creative leadership. Born with an insatiable curiosity, Mitch took the road less traveled into the creative industry. At just 26, he launched his first design and production company, and soon after, found himself collaborating with none other than Prince—designing the love symbol that would become the artist’s new name. That moment set the tone for a career defined by reinvention.
From Minneapolis to New York to Los Angeles, Mitch has left his mark at some of the most prestigious agencies, including 3 Ring Circus, Trollbäck + Company, Sibling Rivalry, MOCEAN and Mirada/Trailer Park Group. His client list reads like the guest list to the coolest creative party: Apple, Disney, Google, Getty Museum, BBC, Searchlight Pictures, Warner Bros., NBC Olympics, NFL, NBA, MLB, MTV Entertainment Group and Virgin Galactic. He’s built visual worlds for fifteen Marvel films and six Olympic Games (and counting). But Mitch isn’t just a creative powerhouse—he’s a Builder and an Executive. A two-time business owner turned agency leader and Client Partner, he thrives at the intersection of creativity and strategy, helping organizations harness their potential and transform visionary ideas into reality. Whether he’s branding a global icon or mentoring the next generation, his work is always about connection—between people, brands, and the stories that move them.
During the pandemic, Mitch co-founded movtogether, a groundbreaking mentorship program bridging underrepresented creatives with top industry players. He’s also spearheading ASSEMBLY since 2021, which is a series of premier partnering events revitalizing the entertainment marketing community in New York and Los Angeles. In a rapidly evolving industry, Mitch remains a steady force, leading with a curiosity and empathy that fosters new partnerships and creative breakthroughs.
