I wasn’t always good at connecting with people. It was a skill I had to learn early. At 14, I left a difficult home environment to pursue a better life. With no money and no clear path forward, I discovered that building genuine connections was my way through. That skill became my lifeline.

Years later, when I launched my first business, I had very little savings not enough to truly start something. What made it possible wasn’t money; it was my communication and people skills. They helped me find clients, create partnerships, and build the business from the ground up, even when my financial resources were almost nothing.

Today, I teach those same skills in my People Skills workshops for Filipinos who want to connect better, communicate with confidence, and create opportunities for themselves.
