As a seasoned business leader and entrepreneur, I bring over two decades of diverse experience in managing, leading, and innovating in various business environments. Starting in my mid-20s as a co-founder, I learned the essentials of business management through real-world challenges, shaping my commitment to continuous learning and strategic thinking. Specializing in process, change, and project management, I hold certifications in Organizational Development, BPM, Prosci Change Management, and Stanford's Advanced Project Management Program. My leadership style emphasizes collaboration, transparency, and accountability, fostering a culture where team members grow and excel. Navigating seamlessly between startups and multinationals across different industries, I've gained a broad perspective on innovative business practices. This experience allows me to challenge conventional methods and inspire teams to think beyond the norm. My extensive time in the Philippines has given me unique insights into cross-cultural management, valuable for companies looking to establish or strengthen their presence in this dynamic market. I'm a firm believer in leveraging data for strategic decision-making, adept at analyzing large datasets to identify business opportunities. My rapid learning ability, demonstrated by completing my undergraduate studies in half the usual time and excelling in professional certifications, ensures quick adaptation to new roles and industries. This blend of experiences positions me as a leader adept at steering companies towards sustainable growth, even in unfamiliar domains.

I've always wanted to become a polyglot! Currently, I'm learning my 3rd language (Japanese) hoping that Spanish or Italian would be my 4th if granted the opportunity. Currently, I am a Vendor Recruiter (Translation, Editing, and Localization) for a US-based translation company who has been in the industry for 25 years with a focus on life sciences and medical translation. Previously, I was a Talent Acquisition Specialist (IT/Technical) in one of the fastest-growing companies here in the Philippines. With a proven track record as a budding Language Recruitment Lead, seasoned Talent Acquisition Specialist in the IT outsourcing, BPO industry, and with a dash of freelancing experience. I also enjoy conducting career talks in universities and recruitment caravans in the past. Outside of recruiting, I was a Social Media Strategist for a local skin care brand for a few months where I explored using Canva, Trello, and Airtable. Can share my portfolio too! I have successfully passed the JLPT N5 in 2020 and am currently pursuing Japanese language courses to challenge the JLPT N4 and N3.
