Hi, I’m Rebecca Mao (she/her)! I’m currently pursuing a Master of Business Management at the University of Michigan Stephen M. Ross School of Business where I’m passionate about combining my background in UX Design with business to create innovative change in our community!
In my free time, you can find me baking some cozy sweets, catching up on my favorite gaming streamers, or watching and reviewing documentaries!
A Little About Me
The Story Behind My Logo
Sometimes I feel like there is this unspoken societal pressure to “grow up” or “be an adult” all the time. Yet, I truly feel that keeping your inner child close is the key to being a designer! Childhood imagination is not bound down by barriers of reality allowing for innovative ideas to be born. My logo acts as a reminder to those who see it (and me from time to time!) to not be so caught up in being an adult all the time.
