About me

I am a Manila-based writer and editor that has always advocated for long-form stories from the Philippines.

I was raised by the folks at GRID Magazine, where I started my career as an editorial assistant, and left as Editor-in-Chief—convinced that there were enough local stories to fill hundreds of issues.

After graduating from the Erasmus Mundus MA program of Media, Journalism, and Globalization, I've tried my hand at business reporting in London, leading the editorial team at adobo magazine, and programming culture at the largest communications network in the country.

Now you'll find me at Sustina, a women-led nonprofit I co-founded. We publish stories about Filipino sustainability, working with a team of impact designers to make sure our reporting matters.
