  • Outreach Administration
  • Short Bio

    Originally from the Philippines, I was raised in a high energy entrepreneurial family, leading me to manage both legacy businesses and my own startups. My perspective is rooted in a unique early start: I soloed an airplane at 16, before I even had a driver’s license. This love for aviation evolved into a global pursuit of culture and connection. Having explored six continents, I pride myself on an inclusive worldview shaped by diverse opinions. Now based in Auburn, Alabama, I balance my professional life with a relentless passion for the outdoors and nature. Whether I’m fishing in remote locations throughout the year, or skiing/snowboarding in different mountain ranges all over the world, I love being out in nature.

    Education

    • Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Management Western Michigan University, Haworth College of Business 2015

    Professional Experience

    I solve complex business challenges by bridging the gap between high level strategy and agile execution. Throughout my career, I've led cross-functional teams to deliver results in operations, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and tech implementations. I specialize in turning raw data into growth using Excel, Power BI, and Generative AI to automate workflows and sharpen decision making. Beyond my primary role, I am passionate about mentorship, helping others navigate career transitions and graduate admissions with the same strategic analytical rigor I bring to my work.

    Engagement

    I believe data is most powerful when it’s used to build community. During my time at Auburn University Outreach, I’ve focused on creating better ways to measure impact, from representing the Philippines at the Global Community Day Festival to overhauling our event check-in systems via Qualtrics. Whether I’m building dashboards in Power BI or assisting in Salesforce CRM/Marketing Cloud rollout, my goal is always to ensure our division stays connected to the communities we serve.
