Hello there!

I am Miguel Guerrero, and I believe good design can be a catalyst for positive change.

I am a first generation Filipino-American born in Manila, now radiating from Houston, Texas. I studied graphic design at the University of Houston, where I graduated magna cum laude in 2018. Design disciplines I am especially keen on are branding and identity systems, exhibition design, motion graphics, and data visualization.

My goal is to create work that I can speak through; an ideal project for me is one where I can develop form and content together. I believe a designer’s trade is in storytelling and I intend to use my craft to bring about positive transformative work to all levels of my community and beyond.
