It’s a journey – everything I did in life took me to where I am today. I look back to my heritage, family and the world. I embrace my femininity. I bring women to collaborate. I integrate art and design in everyday life. Interior design, organizing, reading, journal writing, personal development, cooking, travel, learning new skills, networking, health and wellness, being green and shopping local are among the various interests that keep me active both in body, mind and spirit.

I have a Bachelor of Interior Design degree from the University of the Philippines, Basic Professional Certificate in Culinary Arts from California Culinary Academy and Professional Certificate in Event Management from University of San Diego.

After 25+ years working for the government in the engineering sector, I retired to pursue a creative career. I honed my skills by working part time doing events and catering to prepare for this next phase.

In the pursuit of a post retirement career, staying active and eating a plant based diet is my priority in order to have a healthy lifestyle.

Everywhere I go, I try to fix my surrounding to suit my needs as I believe that your space reflects your mood. Like they say that a calm, quiet and harmonious interior can be as beneficial to health as a suitable diet and exercise. Presently I am a nomad exploring other areas in and outside the US and in the process of finding my own place. And also in the process of starting this creative career and begin a new life story.

I love quotes and I collect them and this is one of my favorites.

Success breeds success. Happiness breeds happiness. The more you are of what you want, the more of what you want will be a part of who you are. – Thomas Willhite
