You might be wondering, what are these stickers? Well, they're little illustrations I did that represent some things about myself. Just a fun way to get to know me while showcasing what I do outside of UX work! The facts are:

❶ About Me

I'm a UX designer and multidisciplinary artist who loves merging art with problem-solving! Originally an accounting major, my design journey began when I moved from the Philippines to NYC in 2019 to study visual art. Since then, I’ve worked as an illustrator and designer in gaming, publishing, animation, and e-learning.

What I'm most passionate about is inclusive and accessible design for all. I’m a resilient self-starter committed to using design to uplift communities.

Beyond my professional work, I co-own Kittybug Press↗, a micropress archiving the visual stories of Filipino female and LGBTQ+ artists as an act of resistance. Through our free Risograph printing initiative, we provide opportunities for Filipino artists and designers to expand their creative practice and explore new mediums.

When I’m not working, I’m probably busy writing film reviews on Letterboxd, bingeing TV shows, playing video games, or obsessing over my two cats.
