About

Hello, I'm Matthew Encina. I'm a creative director, designer, and educator. I create content about living by design, and I share how that manifests in different parts of my life– home, work, and habits. I’m a Filipino-American, born and raised in Los Angeles, and I've been a creative professional for over 20 years– directing, designing, and telling stories for some pretty awesome clients. I love to rock climb, breakdance, play video games, drink coffee, and nerd out on mechanical keyboards and comic books.
