Hey hey :-)
Mae Rooney here! I'm an illustrator and graphic designer based in the Metro Detroit area. Originally from Daegu, South Korea, but have been a Michigander for almost my whole life.
Graduated May 2021, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Design from Wayne State University, Detroit, MI.
A bit about me:
- one hundo percento an overthinker (aka cannot just "wing it")
- love to narrate my dog and cats' lives
- greet all of my neighbors' outdoor cats
- incredibly observant (shy kid perks)
- use humor to deal with my feelings
The super short and sweet story of how Hunkagum came to be. One day my dad and I were in the waiting room, while we waited we were making up fun names. He said, "Hunkagum like on the bottom of a shoe or a very buff piece of gum." I really love this memory and the name just stuck (haha)
Reach out if you want to work together, or just say hello.
