ABOUT ME

A community organizer and a poet, Ihas spent 10 years working with various Filipino American and Asian American organizations. I began my exploration of identity and community through the Filipino American Cultural Society (FACS) of Salem High School in Virginia Beach in 1998. While in college, I served as president for the Filipino American Coming Together (FACT) and the Asian Student Caucus (ASC) at Virginia Commonwealth University. From 2003-2004, I served as a National Director for Filipino Intercollegiate Networking Dialogue (FIND) and co-chaired the FIND conference at William and Mary in 2005. In 2009, I helped found the Filipino Americans Creating A Dynamic Environment (FACADE) in Virginia Beach. I graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a B.A. in International Studies and a minor in Religious Studies.
