From the Designer
First-generation graduate from Washington State University and received a Bachelor of Arts in Interior Design degree.
Coming from a Filipino background our culture is all about caring for each other. My family is filled with medical professionals, and at the beginning of my college years, I was majoring in the medical field. At the time I thought that was the only way that I could help people until I discovered the profession of Interior Design. At a young age, I was aware of my natural talent for creativity whether it was creating my own clothing line, redecorating my bedroom, or designing my dream home. This made me realize that the redirection in college still leads me to achieve my core values in life and while doing what I love at the same time.
I hope to establish a career as a designer working on projects focusing on hospitality, assisted living, retail, and workplace design. Where my love, creativity, and skills can be utilized to create designs of beauty and significance.
This portfolio consists of a few of the projects that I have done over the years in the SDC program at WSU together with my Philippine Family Residence that I assisted in the design process.

There are 6 full kitchen food vendor booths that is open to any small business to rent out along with a shared storage space.
The idea came from food trucks but instead it is placed in an indoor seating where people can gather together and eat food with the view of the Seattle Great wheel.

The workplace is inspired by Adobe in which we worked closely with Gensler and an Adobe client throughout the semester.
This partnership was a great opportunity for my team to learn from ID professionals that work in the industry and understand the needs of real clients.
The goal was to design a global workplace that aligns with the company’s culture and where the site is located.

The different levels in Tech Vida are color coordinated by the types of spaces it consists. On this level, events, team collaboration, and client meetings occur so we chose to do a warm palette to emphasize color theory on how these colors give off an energetic feel to the space.

On this level is mainly accessible to our employees of Tech Vida, this level has a cool color palette to replicate a relax and focus space. There are shared workspaces, conference rooms and an beverage work lounge for employees to grab a drink mid shift if they would like.

Originally the Sa’adat Textile Factory in Yazd, Iran. Woven Garden Hotel is inspired by the threads of traditional handcrafted Persian rugs. The design of the hotel embodies the elements of the carpets like the vibrant colors and woven threads to life. The “unwoven” fabric, uses the details of weaving, tangling threads to take sculptural form throughout the interior.

Study Abroad
Design in Florence Program
Location: Study Abroad in Florence, Italy
Date: Fall 2022 | 4th year
For my last year in the ID program, I had the opportunity to spend my fall semester in Florence, Italy with a group of design students.
We had design projects focusing on honoring the Florentine artisan heritage and reconnecting the importance of creating by hand. My peers and I visited multiple historical places and these watercolored sketches were from some of the things we have seen.

Cinque Terre
Venice Ponte
Market Stall Model
The final project of our semester in Florence is to design our own version of the market stalls that we see all around the city of Florence.
Using the knowledge that we have learned through this experience, guided the design of this market stall.

Family Home
Philippines Residence on Ancestral Land
Location: Kalinga, Philippines
Date: 2017 - 2022
My parents purchased a piece of land that has been in our family for generations to generations in 2017. For my immigrant parents from it is a dream to be able to build their own home in our motherland country. Our home is nearly completed after all of these years of building it from the ground up.
Using my skills that I have learned in the Interior Design program, I used my knowledge in guiding my parents decisions throughout the design process of our family home. From space planning to choosing finishes and materials.
Original Home
This is an image of the original home that was on the land. My grandmother raised my dad and his siblings in this home. Once everyone immigrated to America the land was unoccupied for years.
The land was given to the oldest sibling out of 4. Then my dad was given the opportunity to purchase the land from his brother. That is how my dad’s dream home project began.

Staircase
There are 3 levels in our home. Our home has a total of 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, outdoor balcony, and 2 full kitchen and living rooms.
The basement area is accessed from the park-in garage. There is a connection to an covered outdoor area that has its own kitchen and living room. We designed that space to be easily accessible for my grandparents without needing to go up any staircase. Also, in the Philippines we love to host parties for our community so this space can be used for that as well.
