(Dean Ni-ye-va Bao-tees-tuh)

I am an exhibition and graphic designer living in Rochester, New York.

​

This page is a compilation of my story and the past and present works I made all through out the years 😀

​

​

After earning a BFA degree in Industrial design from the University of the Philippines- Diliman, I initially wanted to pursue furniture design.

However, the opportunities present at that time led me to visual merchandising and exhibition design.

"Deane was also fearless when it came to taking on new tasks. During my time working with her, Deane pushed herself to learn new creative software and began editing and expanding our virtual product catalog. She also took over leadership of our in-house graphic design services and led our rebranding efforts for our services team."

Everyone was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic one way or another.

I was working from home since my maternity leave ended in December of 2019. I was scheduled to go back to working in the office in May of 2020, however, since the tradeshow industry was one of the industries directly affected by the pandemic, I was let go a month prior just when the pandemic was peaking its height. I took it as an opportunity to stay home, take care of my then 6-month old daughter and continue working on my side business of paper flowers.
