I was born and raised in the Philippines on the island of Cebu. I attended the University of San Carlos in Cebu and the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, where I studied Product Design. After graduation, I moved to Seattle and worked at Microsoft for eight years as a Product Designer for Windows and multimedia applications. In 2000, I started my own design company, where I created content and UI for clients such as Real Networks, BSquare, Adrenium Games, and MSN. I then spent five years working full-time for the video games industry as a UI Designer and 3D Artist. My most recent experience has been as a Senior User Experience Designer at Artefact, a design consultancy firm with clients such as Microsoft, HTC, InfoSpace, Intel, etc. For more details, check out my resume (requires Adobe Acrobat).
