LET'S CONNECT

In all-lowercase letters. Yes, with an 'h.'
Weren't you too sentimental to let go of your high school email too? 😥 


Follow me elsewhere on: InstagramBehance, or LinkedIn.

MARIEL EMPIT

I'm a Filipino illustrator, designer, and art director. 

My colorful illustrative work is reflective of the wonder & humor that I go about with in the world. I'm passionate about design for social good - grounded on community, inclusivity, & sustainability (I know that seems like a buzzword thing designers say, but really, I do).


In 2015, after graduating with honors on a full-tuition scholarship in a Multimedia Arts degree at the De La Salle-College of St. Benilde, I pursued an Art Director position at one of Manila's biggest advertising agencies. In 2019 - after almost four fruitful years in an agency, I've decided to go freelance.
