A little bit about me
Contact info.
I am a graphic designer, and illustrator based in Dubai, and I am currently working as a
freelancer. I specialize in illustration and am proficient in the Adobe Creative Suite programs;
Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and After Effects. I was born in the Philippines, but raised
here in the U.A.E so I was exposed to multiple different cultures; which is how I developed this
flexible personality and am able to work well in teams.
Many times during projects I am thrown in to take the role of Project Manager, so I’ve learnt
that inspiring people to work harder results in even more inspiring and creative designs.
