About the Artist
Hey besties 👋 It's Cam from the Internet!
Cam (she/they/whatever pronouns you prefer) is an artist, social media scroller, and proud cat mom to Warden and Dulcie. If we've met before, it's likely via TikTok or YouTube or from some sort of fan convention artist alley (if you bought my Destiel Putin apocalypse pin ribbon....I am so sorry, and you're a real one).
I founded Cameo Co. in 2020 under its former name, WayWords Paper Co., as a simple little Etsy shop through which I could used tracked shipping to send The Locked Tomb-themed stickers to friends of mine who lived outside of the United States. Those listings quickly (and unexpectedly) gained traction far outside my group of friends, and lo! the shop was born!
Obviously my offerings now are far less paper-related and far more pin-based, which is why I endeavored to change the name in 2025. Cameo Co. is an homage to two things: pins and the nickname by which many on the internet know me.
When I'm not working on new designs or crowdfunding campaigns for the shop, you can find me writing fanfiction, rewatching Jujutsu Kaisen or Yu Yu Hakusho's Dark Tournament arc, or playing a video game (and probably dying a lot).
