Hi, I'm Keana (she/her), a UX designer and artist from the Philippines. My focus is on characters, cuteness, and compassion - and it shows in my bubbly work.Based in Canada, I recently worked as a UX Developer for Bloom Digital Media. My most recent projects are Disney Villains Cursed Café, a visual novel featuring the Disney villains in the modern era, and Later Daters, a charming visual novel about seniors finding love in a retirement community.I have previously worked on a Mixed Reality experience, a fine motor therapy game for children with cerebral palsy, and other projects.Feel free to say hi!

You’re the newest resident at Ye OLDE retirement community, where you’ll meet a cast of sexy seniors who are all dying (not literally) to meet you. It’s a lot like summer camp, but with orthopedic shoes, bridge clubs, and more jell-o. It’s an adjustment as you settle in, but who knows: maybe these will turn out to be the best years of your life!
