Denise Cruz

Born in Manila, Philippines with a bunch of back and forth between the US and PI, Denise made her way to the US. She's always loved art (as many others), mainly pursing illustration then received her B.S. in Computer Science in Cal State Hayward. While her love for art has never left, she continues to to draw, bake, and still stay up today with Network Security for fun. She enjoys bouldering both indoors and outdoors, learning new balisong tricks with her trainers, and figuring out why she can't bake bread properly. She's trained with Chris Borders, Melissa Grillo, Arianna Ratner, Charlie Adler, Andrea Toyias, and Phil Bache.
