About

Hi there, friends! I’m Christie—a mild-mannered ESOL teacher by day and a multitasking wife, mom, and entrepreneur by night (basically a superhero, but with coffee stains). I call Baltimore, Maryland home, where I bake sweet treats, wander off to explore new places, and enthusiastically try all the weird and wonderful foods the world has to offer.

I started Proud Pinoy Shirts because, let’s be real, our Filipino culture deserves its own runway! Growing up, I noticed how our values—like resilience, community, and a knack for making the best party spreads—make us uniquely Filipino. My designs are like mini shout-outs to our heritage, reminding us to rock our roots wherever we are.

So, throw on one of our shirts, start a convo, and let’s keep sharing our story—one comfy tee at a time! 💃🇵🇭

“Across oceans and continents, the Filipino spirit endures—a tapestry woven from resilience, love for family, and an unbreakable connection to homeland. No matter where the journey takes us, the heart remains forever Filipino.”
