Early life and education
Mitchell was born in western Pennsylvania and obtained his B.S. in Chemistry from Carnegie Mellon University in 2002. He obtained his PhD in 2006 from the University of California, Berkeley and worked with Michael Marletta on the nitric oxide-dependent post-translational modifications of proteins. For postdoctoral studies, he worked with Jack Dixon at the University of California, San Diego and pursued the study of Streptococcal toxin biosynthesis. In 2009, he began his independent career at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign as an Assistant Professor of Chemistry. In 2015, he was promoted to Associate Professor with tenure.
