Me, an ACTOR?


My first stint in Jakarta my second abroad, Being the newest addition to the ISMILE family, it was kind of an initiation to be part of the Year-end Concert, Lion King. I played the role of Rafiki.


It was such an amazing experience, ACTING, never thought of myself as an actor but being a TEACHER, encompasses everything, we do not just teach, we become, entertainers, artists, actors, dancers, singers, 2nd parent, counselor and a friend.


And I enjoy every minute of it

Teach, Love, laugh, dance, sing! ...


It was my first ever job away from  the Philippines and there were a lot of changes. Lifestyle and work wise adjustments were expected.

I am proud of my short stint in Singapore. Living alone made me know more about independence and courage. I also re -  discovered my love for teaching children. Handling the Busy Buddies (a drop-off class) made me realize my career, teaching. 



I LOVE TEACHING. 

Lets talk about Leadership!



Being an SCB (Student Coordinating Board) Moderator for 2 years has its highs and lows. I have learned a lot about myself, my strengths and weaknesses and most specially working with young, passionate and creative students.

Disagreements and debates are inevitable but letting these kids decide and guide them in producing worthwhile activities for their fellow students gives me joy.

I have harnessed my skill in creating team building activities, awareness campaigns and events planning. This experience taught me a lot and helped me know more about myself. 

Leadership entails hardwork, dedication and commitment.
teaching other about being a responsible leader is a different story!
