Education & Training

A collaborative, idea-driven and growth-oriented individual passionately looking to thrive in a career in Sports. As a lifelong sports fan, I have always tried to apply the athlete's mindset in my roles within multi-national companies. Whether it was rallying the Pampers team in P&G to help lead its big turnaround, inspiring a team for a campaign launch for the Men's Grooming brands in Unilever Philippines, or developing TV campaigns for the 2019 SEA Games, I have always tried to unleash the inner athlete in me to achieve seemingly insurmountable feats in my work life. Now with an dynamic array of roles spanning FMCG Marketing and Sports Media, I believe that I am prepared to take on a bigger role in the world of Sports beyond the Philippines.
