Michaela Acton is a graphic design student who does not have nearly enough time to binge shows while knitting and drawing superheroes. She has a shop on Redbubble where she puts all her superhero drawings up as stickers. Michaela’s latest knitting project was a blanket that when she finished it she realized this whole time it had accidentally been over 12 feet wide because she did not count the stitches when she was starting it and just went by vibes.
Michaela was born [redacted] and has three younger siblings. Her family loves watching movies and doing escape rooms together. She is very competitive, loves winning, being right, and is a part of the board game club on campus, Towson Tabletop.
This past summer Michaela worked at a summer camp as a counselor and adventure staff, meaning she learned how to set up and safely run high ropes elements (such as the zipline, vomit comet, and high ropes course). This continues a trend where Michaela only works jobs that her 10 year old self would’ve picked, adventure staff, candy store, next world domination or something. She has also worked a variety of campus jobs but those never feel like real jobs once you’ve experienced the high pressure world of sorting the 12 flavor gummy bears.
