I was born in the beautiful island of Iloilo City in the Philippines, the “city of love.” Once I turned 5 I moved with my parents, Jerylen and Romano, to America for better opportunities. I grew up in Gainesville at the local Catholic Schools, Saint Patricks interparish school and Saint Francis Catholic Academy. In 2018 my friends introduced me to Catholic Gators by bringing me to a Newman dinner and eventually I got to go on the Alpha retreat(you should sign up if you haven’t). Through the years I have had the opportunity to serve as Men’s Chair, Alpha Leader, and the Parish Evangelization team coordinator. When I’m around the church you will most likely find me talking about Gator Athletics, Liverpool FC, or a new song that has been stuck in my head that I want everyone to hear. In my free time I enjoy playing sports, eating new foods, playing instruments, and hanging out with my friends. I love talking about sports, the liturgy, and music so feel free to talk to me! Hope to see you all around!
