Where was the last place you traveled to and what was your favorite memory from the trip?
My motherland, the Philippines. Visiting my family and seeing people so happy even having so little. It really humbles you a lot and it makes you grateful for what you have.

The diversity of people which brings all different kinds of food to the region. I’m a seeker when it comes to trying other cultures food and there is no better place to experience that than the Bay Area.

The Shoreline Amphitheater in Mountain View. The outdoor feel and especially in the summer time, the concerts are so lively and the vibe is just relaxed.

Everyday walks of life. From what’s going on in the world to what’s going on with me, my family, and my colleagues.

2pac is always on repeat. Rick Ross, Bruno Mars, Future. Lately I’ve been really listening to Luciano Pavarotti.
If you could spend the day anywhere in the world, where would it be?
The Maldives. Just be away from the world and be surrounded by water, hella fruit and just relax on the beach.
