  • Growing up in a family deeply rooted in the grocery store business, I was fortunate to have the invaluable guidance and mentorship of my father. From a young age, he instilled in me the fundamentals of running a successful grocery store, imparting not only practical skills but also invaluable lessons in customer service and financial management. Under my father's tutelage, I learned the ins and outs of grocery store operations, from effectively communicating with customers to meticulously tracking inventory levels. His teachings extended beyond the technical aspects of business; he emphasized the importance of prudent financial management, teaching me the art of saving and investing wisely. As I transitioned into a more active role within our family business, I carried with me the values of self-motivation and personal responsibility instilled by my father. These qualities have been instrumental in driving my dedication to ensuring the smooth operation of grocery stores. Operating in a fast-paced environment is second nature to me, thanks to hands-on experience gained through years of working alongside my father. Whether managing tasks independently or collaborating within a team, I adapt seamlessly to the demands of a bustling grocery store environment. In addition to my contributions, I understand the significance of teamwork in achieving our collective goals. Drawing from my experiences, I strive to foster a supportive and collaborative atmosphere within our team, providing guidance and assistance wherever needed. Respect, friendliness, and a genuine willingness to help are cornerstones of my interactions with both colleagues and customers alike, reflecting values instilled in me by my father and the ethos of our family business.

  • When I was a child, my parents believed in the value of spending my time productively, even if it meant at McDonald's. They thought it was important for me to learn responsibility and gain practical skills from a young age. Thankfully, McDonald's had a program called Kid's Crew, designed to engage children during the summer months. It provided a unique opportunity for youngsters like me to learn about work ethics, teamwork, and cleanliness while having fun.
  • At just 9 years old, I eagerly joined the Kid's Crew program at our local McDonald's. Despite my young age, I was determined to contribute and learn as much as possible. Under the guidance of supervisors, I quickly picked up essential tasks such as cleaning dishes, mopping floors, and sweeping. These chores may have seemed mundane, but they were invaluable lessons in diligence and attention to detail.
  • One of the most important aspects of my role was maintaining cleanliness and hygiene within the restaurant. I diligently sanitized dishes, wiped down tabletops, disinfected toys, and regularly cleaned frequently touched surfaces. My efforts weren't just about aesthetics; they were about preventing the spread of germs and ensuring a safe environment for customers and staff alike.
  • Through my experiences at McDonald's, I gained more than just practical skills. I learned the importance of teamwork, responsibility, and the satisfaction of a job well done. These early lessons would shape my work ethic and attitude toward responsibility in the years to come.

I do love playing basketball, listening to music and love watching movies.

I enjoy playing basketball as it keeps me active and it is something that I find exciting. Music is another passion of mine, and I like listening to songs in both Filipino and English languages. I enjoy different types of music like rap, pop, and songs that evoke emotional responses. When it comes to movies, I am a huge fan of action-packed ones such as Fast and Furious. However, I also enjoy watching movies from the Philippines and India as they tell interesting stories and showcase different cultures, which I find fascinating. So, whether I am shooting hoops, listening to tunes, or watching a film, I always have a good time!
