I've been a filmmaker since 2011. From doing TV segments for an international broadcasting company which includes writing the script, coordinating with talents and location managers, to shooting the on-cam interviews and directing the re-enactments; I managed to put up my own production team along with my husband. From there, we acquired broadcast equipment and produced personal videos like weddings, corporate event videos, documentary films, same-day edit videos, and promotional films locally and internationally. If there's such a thing as "unfair advantage," that would be my background in Strategic Marketing that I incorporate with every film we produce. This technical knowledge makes our clients not only get the best during the production phase; with efficient collaboration, the videos we produce start strong through effective marketing engagement and conceptualization.

I create exceptional digital films that make brands' and organizations' message stand out. I relish how sound and light flow beautifully together in time to produce a striking image. It's amazing how the mechanical aspect melts away between spectator and film, to fully immerse us in story. I use it to enhance the value of life, to help us foster better human qualities. In short, I love how video can impart feelings and messages more instinctively. I leverage my skills as a linguist by regularly working with European clients in the Philippines. My advocacy revolves around environment, energy, social enterprise, land-use, good governance and sustainability.

I'm an energetic millennial who loves to explore unique and thought-provoking stories that capture human interest and evoke impact to our global society. Prior to my freelance career in visual storytelling, I spent more than 2 years as a researcher and field producer for I-Witness, the Philippines' longest-running and most awarded documentary programme on television. It's a two-time recipient of the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award. Working for this programme enriched my capacity to investigate and develop narratives that move the audience. I have had more than three years of work experience in the field of public affairs documentary production under the mentorship of the two most distinguished journalists in the country: Ms. Cecilia “Cheche” L. Lazaro and Mr. Howie G. Severino. Apart from television production, I have also gained experience in freelance visual media production and filmmaking where I work with non-government organizations and private companies for PR and educational/training audio-visual presentations and advocacy productions. At present, I am challenging myself to move further in this field of documentary and broadcast journalism by exposing myself to different contents, scenarios, and life stories to develop an ambitious personal project.
