I have a degree in Multimedia Arts from De La Salle-College of Saint Benilde. As a Multimedia Designer, I am passionate in using design to solve real problems for real people with websites, apps, as well as illustrations and video/photo outputs. I would pursue more in this field with much enthusiasm.
