Beginnings
I joined The Look of the Year in 1989. It was there that Auggie Cordero scouted me to walk as the finale alongside Eric Quizon for his gala, despite the fact that I still had no idea how to walk the runway at the time.
Challenges
The most challenging part of my early career was overcoming the perception that Filipino models were not considered international material.
Where I am now
I am currently the Beauty and Wellness editor at Vogue Philippines.
Wisdom
Accept no one’s definition of yourself. Follow your heart, live your best life with integrity, and remember that kindness is a currency.
