About:
I am a newly admitted lawyer, having joined the Philippine Bar on January 24, 2025. I practice in the areas of civil law, commercial law, election law, and labor law. I earned my Juris Doctor from the Ateneo de Davao University College of Law, and hold a BS in Mechanical Engineering from the University of the Philippines – Diliman. I am also a Mechanical Engineering board passer. Currently, I serve as Chief of Staff to a City Councilor, where I work closely on legislation, policy development, and public service programs. With a multidisciplinary background and experience in both law and governance, I bring analytical thinking, adaptability, and a strong commitment to public service in every professional role I take on.
