I'm an illustrator currently working out of Rizal, Philippines. I make drawings for books and other publications, commercial and brand-related projects, and also for my personal experiments like zines and stationery. I use digital and traditional materials, and have years of experience working as a graphic designer, too.
I'm especially happy when I work on things about nature, pop culture, food, childhood and play, and daily life. When I'm not at my desk, my cat Chimken is.
