I'm a multi-disciplinary artist and designer, currently studying at the California College of the Arts (CCA). I'm based in San Francisco, but I grew up in the Philippines. I bring a collectivist perspective in designing WITH and FOR people because I believe design is a social responsibility.

✦ BEYOND DESIGN.
Each of my creative practice informs and strengthens my design thinking. ✴︎
I create things across a wide breadth of mediums, each discipline interconnecting with one another. Hover to learn more.
POETRY → COMMUNICATION
Poetry takes a lot of intention to write, and in the same wavelength, design requires careful decision-making.
BUILDING → UNDERSTANDING CONSTRAINTS
Working in 3D made me realize how much planning it requires in the microscopic and macroscopic scales.
MUSIC → MEANING
I make music because I simply love it. Music, like design, has the power to touch people’s lives in profound ways.
PHOTOGRAPHY → VISUAL CONTROL
Photography helped me develop a keen eye for proportion, layout, and visual hierarchy.
ART → OBSERVING WITH PRECISION
Art requires awareness and observation of the real world to translate it into a story.
MISC → FUN, WHIMSY, DELIGHT
I love designing specifically just to have fun and experiment. Yup, I made that DM screen for my friend!
