About Me

Hi, I’m Mike Franke (pronounced Franke-EEE)

I am a UX professional with 15+ years of experience in managing teams, creating user experiences, and designing products. I currently work at Red Hat where I manage an amazing team of UX Designers. I also lead a UX team that is building Red Hat’s new in-vehicle operating system.

At work, I enjoy solving problems, thinking about the user, and bringing people together. I believe that people are the most important part of any business and I thrive on supporting people's growth and success.

Outside of work, I love being a dad, playing guitar, and finding vintage toys/collectibles.
