Born in the Philippines, grew up in a small town, went to CAL for college and made the Bay Area my home. I LOVE it here. The food, culture and people here are AMAZING!

I like to jog around the lake and have done a couple half marathons and fun runs the last two years. I just got a fixie for days I feel like riding instead of jogging. Finding a balance between work and working out is a challenge. I can be a workaholic at times. Lately I've been hitting the gym (24) or the dance studio learning how to ballroom dance. Salsa, Cha cha, Tango, Rumba... Just the basics but its fun and FREE!

I Yelp everywhere I go. I enjoy trying new food; supporting the local hole in the wall places to the Michelin starred restaurants.

Climbing the ranks of the non-profit sector. Pioneering educational reform. Building affordable housing. Giving back to the community. I guess I have super hero complex and this is me trying to save the world.

Cooking? DIY projects? Arts and Crafts? I like creating things and using my hands.

My smile.

My next creative project

On a typical Friday night I'm usually hanging out with friends, sharing stories and drinks, unwinding from the work week.

I'm scared of birds. I try to avoid them. I run a farther route when I jog around the lake just to avoid them.

If you want to go on a foodie adventure, bike ride, run, hike, or dancing.
