Hello, I'm Bern.
I’m an art-based creative who loves crafting and making things up for a living. My work has been recognized by Lürzer’s Archive, AdFest, Spikes Asia, LIA, One Show Asia, CLIO, New York Festivals, and Cannes Lions—which is great, though it seems my luck kicks in mostly with chocolate brands (TYL for Snickers and KitKat 🙏🏻).
Right now, I’m an Associate Creative Director at VML Manila, trying to make ads that people might actually want to watch.
When I’m not working, I’m probably getting way too competitive over board games, crying for strangers on the internet, collecting blind box figures I definitely don’t have room for, or experimenting in the kitchen with recipes I found while doomscrolling.
