Mig Reyes

Advisor at AIGA Chicago

Mig Reyes served as President for AIGA Chicago during 2017, as well as Co-President alongside Alisa Wolfson in 2016. Mig leads design at Trunk Club, an fashion retailer owned by Nordstrom. Prior to Trunk Club, Mig spent four years figuring out how to help people work better together leading brand, marketing, and product design projects at Basecamp—formerly known as 37signals. Leading up to Basecamp, Mig cut his teeth helping artists find their voice at Threadless as their first full-time web designer working on brand, marketing, and user interfaces for the t-shirt crowd-sourcing pioneers. He and his work have been recognized with AIGA, CMYK, HOW, Print, Rockport, and the Society of Typographic Arts, and UnderConsideration.

Mig draws from the Midwest mentality of humility and giving back. Outside of his time serving as President of AIGA Chicago, he started the Chicago chapter of CreativeMornings, teaches, and regularly travels to speak on design, craft, and culture.
