Mike Medd is a designer from the USA who is now based in Hong Kong, China. He is the founder and creative force behind Urban Monk, a design agency that is well known for its interactive development and print design.

Medd grew up in Maine and went to university at Washington University in St. Louis, Missouri where he received a bachelor's degree in business. He then moved to Washington D.C. and became the Marketing Director of E&E Publishing (formerly EESI Publishing). Not content with building a business in D.C., Medd decided to take his talents abroad to Asia where he eventually settled down in Hong Kong. His first gig was developing the new online branding for Sony's Electronics division in 1998 and soon thereafter, most of Asia's major sporting bodies including the Asian PGA, Asian Football Association, Asian Basketball Confederation and the International Table Tennis Federation.

Since 2001, he has been heavily involved with building Urban Monk. The agency is best known developing online branding for Asia's top restaurant and hospitality brands.
