I’m Sheryl but I always prefer to be called by my nickname, Shé. I am freelance filmmaker for 3 years now. I write and direct documentaries and fiction films for film & TV.

I was born in Mindanao, grew up in Manila and Cavite and now living in Quezon City 😊. I spent a decade working in NGO which also made me reach remote places in the Philippines. I started solo traveling when I was 25 - both for work & leisure, and since then my restless feet, mind and soul is always on search for the next adventure.

Travel humbles me as a person, widens my view in understanding the world and gives me more reason to love Philippines, in spite and despite of everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I can sleep soundly anywhere - bus, chair, bench, under the tree 😊

I used to organize a month long intercultural learning exposure program for Austrian participants understanding Philippine culture and development issues

Teach, Learn, Share

I can provide a political and socio-cultural perspective in understanding Filipino history and culture, two faces of Metro Manila and some tips in "surviving" commuting in the metro. I can also share and teach, cooking traditional Filipino dishes; and might join you to the "must visit" areas especially in Quezon City.
