about me!
Hi! I'm August (they/he), you can also call me AC :]
I'm a 21-year-old non-binary artist and designer based in Metro Detroit.I’m a 2026 graduate of Oakland University (Rochester, MI), where I earned a B.A. in Graphic Design and a minor in Advertising. At OU, I served as the Managing Editor for the Oakland Post and as the Publicity Manager for the Golden Grizzlies Athletic Band.I’ve always loved bright colors and childlike imagery, and I often incorporate these elements into my work. I’m experienced with the Adobe Creative Suite and other programs, including Procreate, Figma, and Carrd. I spend most of my time creating—whether it’s design, illustration, jewelry, or more.

My favorite newspaper center spreads I've done for the Oakland Post! I started as a Graphic Designer in January 2025 and was promoted to Managing Editor for the 2025-2026 school year. Each design is inspired by the story content and the author.
