About

Illustrator, graphic designer and avid doodler. With years of experience with illustration and a strong foundation in art; I have been drawing for as long as I can remember, with a passion for doing portraits. Currently finishing up my studies in Fine Arts at Nanyang Technological University specialising in Visual Communication. I have a great interest in printed and traditional media, having made several zines, postcards and posters in my own time. My final year project, You Don't Seem Filipino, is a graphic novel recounting my experience growing up in the Philippines and Singapore; melding my love for illustration, storytelling and design into one project. I love telling stories but I'm no writer so I let my visuals do the heavy lifting. Originally from a game art background, I dipped my toes into graphic design in 2015, participating in the SG50 tote bag design competition (not my finest work) and later at my first internship at XII Braves, There, I worked on in-game banners and honed my Photoshop skills.
