Arena’s creative journey began in a rather unusual way: designing fanfiction posters for a classmate in exchange for bookshop treats, at the ripe age of 10.
Arena is a Singapore-based Creative with an interest in Art Direction and all things wacky.
Her interest in creating started with homemade renditions of children's book covers, weheartit posters and blogskins that filled her (unsupervised) early internet years. Since then, she has turned that obsession with concepts into a career, bringing ideas to life as a Designer at APT811 and an Art Director intern at BBH.
Outside of work, you’ll find her on the way to an ominous Carousell meetup, photographing funny void deck finds, and catching up on the latest pop culture gossip
