I came from a hard-working, middle-class family. At the age of 14, I migrated to the United States with my mother and brother. I worked myself through college, but dropped out because of financial issues. In spite of adversities in my life, I still managed to climb up the corporate ladder working for a Fortune 500 company, through PATIENCE, HARD WORK, DETERMINATION, and PERSEVERANCE. My drive and passion for business and success served as catalysts for me to leave my high corporate life in 2005 to pursue my lifetime dream to become an entrepreneur. Since then, I managed to successfully start and operate several businesses in the U.S. and the Philippines.
