Mike Carnevale believes digital experiences are part of reality now, and that they should hold the full range of human experience, from practical purpose to emotional connection. He has been pursuing that idea for decades as the founder of CARNEVALE, working alongside teams at companies like Honda, Walmart, and Rockstar Games as each new wave of technology arrives.

He trained as an industrial designer at Carnegie Mellon, then designed furniture for Steelcase and worked on aircraft interiors and cameras at Henry Dreyfuss Associates. That work taught him a product is only as valuable as its ability to improve someone’s everyday life. Today he spends much of his time with executives working through what AI and other emerging technologies mean for their products, their teams, and the people they serve.
