After working with AIA Detroit on various projects, Patty is ecstatic to join the AIA Detroit Team. She founded Rooney and Company in 2014 after graduating from Western Michigan University with a degree in Film, Video, & Media Studies. As the owner of a visual media company, she has years of experience coordinating crew, clients, and talent to ensure high quality work that elevates the voices of nonprofits, small businesses, and corporations she’s had the pleasure of working with.
Patty is looking forward to increasing public awareness of the architecture profession’s impact on Metro Detroit’s ever-changing landscape, and championing the programs, initiatives, and accomplishments of the AIA Detroit community and its members.
In her spare time, she can be found writing sketch comedy and improvising at Planet Ant in Hamtramck. Spending time with her husband, friends, and family is her greatest joy, and she will never turn down a cannoli or the opportunity to show off a photo of her scrappy terrier, Mosby.
