Hey! I’m Charmaine ☺
I’m a freelance designer and illustrator based in Vancouver, Canada; born and raised in the Philippines.
I’m passionate about creating visuals that are not just eye-catching, but purposeful — designed to tell stories, spark connection, and make a positive impact. I enjoy designing for various projects, including branding, print, motion design & animation, publications, and digital platforms like apps and websites.
I graduated from the University of the Philippines-Diliman with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Visual Communication in 2019.
Also me: a cat mom of 2, a crocheter, a budding cel animator, a nature lover, multilingual (english, tagalog, hokkien, french, and some basic mandarin & japanese)
