About Michele Borg

I'm a multidisciplinary creative with a strong foundation in graphic design, UX/UI, public relations, social media/email marketing, and commercial illustration. My experience includes working as a direct support professional and art teacher for autistic adults, where I developed a deep commitment to accessibility and inclusive design. I'm also a published cartoonist with work featured by MTV Books, Feral House, and several independent publishers. My artwork has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and I’ve sold original comics and illustrations at conventions throughout the tri-state area. After completing my college studies, I'm now seeking to transition into a full-time role in graphic design, professional illustration, or social media and email marketing. I bring a unique mix of visual storytelling, hands-on support experience, and a user-centered mindset—ready to create engaging, impactful content across digital and print platforms. I'm also open to new opportunities in illustration and cartooning, where I can continue sharing stories through art. 2023 - Present.
