Welcome to the story of my life. This is where I share my journey, the challenges I've faced, the lessons I've learned, and the person I've become along the way.
Read My StoryA journey through the moments that shaped who I am today
I was born on February 8, 2005, in Cauayan City, where both my parents and extended family were raised. My early years were shaped by the care of my grandparents, who stepped in to support me and my siblings while our parents worked hard to provide for us. Eventually, my grandparents decided to move to Manila to seek better opportunities.
Despite those challenges, I found joy in joining the computer club, playing Counter-Strike, and helping friends with computer-related tasks. In high school, I began learning how to code and build websites using HTML and CSS. I also developed skills in video and image editing. During Grades 11 and 12, I explored the world of TV-ICT, which deepened my interest in technology.
The pandemic disrupted many students' lives, including graduation plans. As a result, I enrolled at the University of Cauayan Campus, where I am now a third-year student pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology.
After graduation, I joined StartUp Ventures as a Junior Developer. This was my first professional experience where I learned the realities of the tech industry.
I took a sabbatical year to travel and explore different cultures. This journey changed my perspective on life and helped me understand what truly matters.
The pandemic years brought reflection and change. I focused on building a bussiness, started mentoring others, and found new ways to contribute to my community.

Growing up in a loving family that encouraged curiosity and independence. My parents taught me the values of hard work, compassion, and continuous learning.

The principles that guide my journey
"Life is not about finding yourself, but about creating yourself. Every experience, whether good or bad, is a brushstroke on the canvas of your life."
I believe in continuous growth, embracing change, and finding joy in the journey rather than just the destination. My approach to life is shaped by curiosity, resilience, and the belief that we have the power to create meaningful change in our lives and the world around us.
