Michael Hutzel

Chief Creative Officer

Michael Hutzel is a full-time art director, occasional writer, frequent internet user, and professional charlatan.

As the creative director of FoxFuel, Michael has a lot of experience and zero patience for corporate nonsense or egos. With over 20 years in and out of agencies, Michael has worked with just about every industry you can name. He’s partnered with brands both big and small, well-known and, more importantly, well-liked. For him, it’s all about working with good people who want to make great work.

His skills include branding, design, copywriting, campaign development, web design, video concepting, scripting, producing, and directing, all with a hint of sarcasm. At FoxFuel, he helps shape projects from half-formed ideas to polished execution, whether they need strategy, style, or a blunt dose of honesty.
