I was born in the Philippines but raised on a much smaller island in the middle of the Pacific - Maui. I was one of those kids who picked up things quickly and could never decide what I want to do when I grow up so I tried everything. (Literally, see below). But something kept drawing me back to the engineering world so I finally grew up and graduated with my BSME and now work as a Design Engineer which I believe is my true calling.
