Step into the world where resilience meets creativity and the path to greatness is paved with dedication and adversity.

I’m Janine Canillas—Senior UX Content Designer, scriptwriter, former stunt performer, Junior Bantam Weight Boxing Champion, and four-time WEKAF National Stick and Knife Fighting Champion. My story is one of transformation: from the grit of the ring to the precision of crafting immersive narratives that resonate and inspire.

With over a decade of experience, I specialize in creating narrative-driven, user-centered content across digital, print, and interactive media. My expertise shines in fintech, neuroscience in health, and cybersecurity, where I simplify complex concepts into engaging, SEO-optimized content that drives user trust, accessibility, and conversion.

Bridging Technical Expertise with Creative Vision

In fintech, I’ve developed user-focused copy for digital wallets, payment platforms, and financial apps, enhancing engagement while adhering to regulatory and compliance standards. In cybersecurity, I create clear, actionable messaging that demystifies complex protocols, empowering users to navigate digital landscapes with confidence.

I’ve also delved into neuroscience, translating intricate studies on Parkinson’s disease, the effects of cannabinoids, and addiction into clear, impactful messaging that drives education, raises awareness, and supports advocacy efforts.

Beyond the technical, I develop creative worlds in AAA video game storytelling and animation. I’ve shaped characters and narratives that captivate audiences and inspire imagination, with highlights including:

• My children’s book, Lenny Peed on That!, reaching readers in over 12 countries.

• An optioned kids’ television series that brings whimsical adventures to life.

• Award-winning work at the Make Me Laugh Film Festival, where my film Le Parking claimed Best Comedy in 2023.
