About

I’m a product designer who's passionate about designing software and helping customers and companies succeed. If you’re curious, you can take a look at my résumé or check out my LinkedIn ↗.

Professional bits

I currently lead the design team at Kumu ↗, a Filipino-made live-streaming app funded by General Atlantic, SIG, and Openspace Ventures.

I'm also on ADPList ↗ where I mentor designers working at companies like Canva, Maya, Growsari, UBX, NextPay, Paymongo, LawAdvisor, Summit Media, and First Circle.

Prior to Kumu, I was at ING ↗ building a digital bank that provided unbanked Filipinos access to financial services. (ING Philippines shut down its services end of 2022.)

Before that, I was at Accenture increasing online revenue for Philippine Airlines ↗, improving knowledgebase experiences for Globe ↗, and solving problems for Saudi and Singaporean governments.

My design career began as part of the early design team at Kalibrr ↗ where we helped thousands of Filipinos find new jobs and start new careers.

Personal bits

I live in in hot and humid Manila, Philippines with my wife, April. I also love reading books. This fact alone makes me completely (un)qualified to run my own bookstore, Uncommon Books ↗ . I've also been learning to run! Connect with me on Strava ↗.
