Hi, I’m Mike Petitto, an illustrator with a passion for turning big ideas into engaging visuals. Originally from Massachusetts, I now call Austin, Texas home. I earned my BFA in Animation from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in 2010, and I’ve been drawing my way through the world ever since.

I started graphic recording in 2011 and have been freelancing full-time since then. Over the years, I’ve partnered with boutique consulting agencies like Collective Next and Hidden Insights, as well as major players like Capgemini’s ASE and PwC. My work spans industries—from Pharma and Finance to Academia and Tech—helping Fortune 500 companies bring clarity and creativity to their conversations.

At the heart of what I do is a love for helping clients see their ideas come to life through visual communication. Whether I’m mapping out keynotes or illustrating complex concepts and strategy sessions, I aim to make information more human, accessible, and memorable.

When I’m not sketching on a whiteboard or tablet, you can usually find me hanging out with my Italian Greyhound, Cuya—who runs the house and has very strong opinions about cold weather.
