Coaching since 2017, she works privately with individuals and groups in implementing behavior, dietary, lifestyle and environmental changes to optimize health, and within health care teams, working with doctors and other health professionals to support treatment to degenerative and chronic health issues through behavioral interventions.
She's an entrepreneur as founder of multiple lifestyle brands, of which the most notable is humble market - the first specialty bulk store in the Philippines, and an alternative lifestyle store with an aim to make holistic wellness and sustainable living more accessible as the new norm in the country.
She's a multi-sport athlete and Philippine representative to international dance competitions. She placed 7th in the world in 2014 at the World Hiphop MegaCrew Division Championship in Las Vegas, USA, and as a finalist in 2022 & 2023 at the TangoBA Pista Category of the Indonesia Championship Preliminaries in Bali. Today, she continues to dance - teach, compete and perform - with her focus on the disciplines of Argentine tango and the Afro-Latin dances.
Previously an operations specialist and manager in development institutions and start-up organisations in the Philippines, India and Singapore, and a coach guiding start-up social entrepreneurs launch businesses in different parts of the globe, her shift to the wellness industry started after being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, which she completely reversed through dietary and lifestyle changes.
As a speaker, she provides a holistic perspective on planetary health, wellness and sustainability, rooted in her own experience overcoming an autoimmune disease in her 20s. She helps bridge topics on three areas we can control: our nutrition, lifestyle and the environment, to ultimately empower individuals to uplift their overall well-being, and the people and environments within their own communities.
