Hi, I’m Tais Capinan — a visual designer with a strong love for art and storytelling. I studied Graphic Design and Animation Design and blend illustration, branding, and user-focused design to create engaging experiences. I began by taking on art commissions on Orkut and designing Facebook covers, then expanded into book covers, branding, motion graphics, and eventually UX/UI design, continually enriching my skills with courses on Udemy and Domestika. Today I’m based in Valencia, Spain, working with brands and agencies on remote and local projects. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines to build modern, playful identities and intuitive interfaces. I’m always learning new tools and techniques and I bring creative energy, adaptability, and a client‑centered mindset to every project.
