Oh hey I’m Mike. I was supposed to be the 5th-generation Behrends to take over the family farm but then I chose a life of letters, ending the succession. These are the stakes I bring to the table.
I am currently a creative director on ESPN at Arts & Letters Creative Co. Previously I was a CD and writer at Fallon on the Arby’s “We Have The Meats” campaign. I’ve worked in-house and at agencies on brands like Target, Buffalo Wild Wings, Dick’s Sporting Goods, H&R Block, Entenmann’s, the Minnesota Timberwolves, and Trolli, plus some bonus work with Pusha T, Old Spice, and ESPN SportsCenter by way of ✨𝔟𝔯𝔞𝔫𝔡𝔢𝔡 𝔭𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔫𝔢𝔯𝔰𝔥𝔦𝔭𝔰✨
Please enjoy this curated selection of work, not excluding this AdAge op-ed or the monster 𝕒𝕟𝕕𝟙 below from my “basketball era.” And feel free to send not spam to michaeljbehrends @ gmail dot com. ✌🏻❤️
