WHO AM I?
(Pronouns: he/they)
​​
Professionally, I am a professional dancer, a teaching artist, an actor, a tenor II, and a program/partnership developer with a Doctorate in Pharmacy from the University of Illinois at Chicago. I pride myself in being an innovative, ambitious, and goal-oriented leader that utilizes my skills as a community leader and servant to focus my mission-based work to serve underserved and marginalized communities with an empowerment and community-centered approach; while valuing racial, arts, and health equity, and moral courage.
​​
On the human level, I am a Filipino-American cis-man with clinical depression and bad case of #FOMO. I tend to live on the introverted side of the spectrum and love connecting with others' humanity and vulnerabilities. I also love going out dancing, celebrating life, and celebrating the people in my life. I am a #ForeverStudent and in a perpetual journey towards a strong back, a soft front, and a wild heart (see: Brene Brown).
