Overview

A Philippine-born product designer with a focus on user interface and interactive experiences. From the functionality of a digital button to the comfort of a perfectly curved chair, I appreciate how design shapes our everyday experiences in diverse ways.


For the past 7+ years of countless design adventures — I’ve worked in agencies developing websites and crafting visual design, gone independent as a design consultant to help small companies ship their ideas from 0 → 1, joined in-house design teams to build B2B and B2C digital products.

Based in 🍁 Canada (formerly at 🥘 Singapore, 🍔 U.S, and the 🥭 Philippines). Outside work, you'll find me strolling, lost in 📚 books or 🎙️ podcast, tinkering with ⌨️ mechanical keyboards, or making ☕️ coffee with my V60.
