Hi! I am Christanne Siamas Miu.

I'm excited you're exploring my page a bit more! I'm going to take a guess and say you're probably wondering how to pronounce my name, Christanne. (Don't worry, you're not alone. Almost everyone I've met has asked!) To save us both some awkward conversations, it's pronounced Kristen. Now that that's out of the way...

There are a few things you should know about me. If you show me a picture of a dog, you'll lose my attention for at least 15 minutes. I consider myself a connoisseur of bar nachos and classic Coca-Cola. My biggest regret is not getting my dog Kobe into modeling. (You just have to see his face!) I am an avid tennis fan and love to debate who the GOAT is. I never say no to dessert.

My approach to design can be captured in a single sentence:
I strive to create products that make the world a little bit easier to navigate.

…and to pet all the dogs while doing it.
