Hi there, my name is Leopoldo Diokno, but you can just call me Leo.
I am currently a digital design supervisor at Questrade, with a dedicated passion for typography, data visualization, and all things digital design. Always striving to connect with others, through creating brand and consumer value.
Looking to learn more about me? Take a look at the accordion below:
-
I received my Bachelor’s of Design, Graphic Design major; at OCAD University, Toronto, ON. A great place to get started learning, but I need to be honest, YouTube, Pinterest, and Reddit are the real heroes here. I tend to be more a DIY and a constant self-learner, always looking to learn new and best design software and practices. While at OCAD, I received a nifty recognition for my thesis work, check it out!

My love for design and typography started when I use to work at my local movie theatre. Nothing more beautiful than the typography artwork used in classic movie posters. Eventually started designing little posters and digital ads for the theatre, and got the ball rolling from there. Got my foot wet in a few startups, and eventually shifted to full gear when I got it to my first ad agency opportunity.

When I’m not designing away, I’m mostly at Home Depot getting supplies for my next home furniture project. From woodworking to painting, I try to find other mediums to challenge myself in.
Thanks for reading through!
