I am an Interior Designer with over 20 years of experience in residential, commercial, leisure, and hospitality projects. Originally from the Philippines and now based in the Netherlands, I bring a blend of professional expertise, creativity, and international inspiration to every project.

Throughout my career, I have worked with leading real estate developers, progressing from hands-on design to senior leadership roles. My expertise spans the entire design process, from concept development and space planning to technical documentation and project execution, always balancing aesthetics, functionality, quality, and practicality.

What I enjoy most is space planning. My fascination began as a child playing Tetris, finding satisfaction in making everything fit perfectly. That same instinct continues to shape how I approach interiors today, maximizing spaces while making every element purposeful.

My design style is constantly evolving, influenced by my travels, experiences, and different cultures. I don't limit myself to a particular aesthetic, enjoying everything from classic to contemporary interiors. I do, however, have a soft spot for coastal-inspired design, natural textures, and the calming elements of the sea.

For me, every design starts with a story because I believe the best way for someone to truly connect with a space is to understand the meaning behind it.
