I have worked in varied industries, from environmental conservation and communication work, to retail and design working with local craftsmen and promoting Filipino artists and designers, to the space of K-12, genuine Montessori education in Manila. As different as my work has been, one thing I'm particularly proud of is the way each of my roles uniquely and meaningfully contribute to nation building from environmental sustainability, to supporting local art and craft and finally to educating the next generation of young Filipino adults. I believe that doing things with excellence in whatever field of work must have a purpose larger than oneself to make one's contributions truly meaningful, fulfilling and worthwhile.
