hello Grüezi
Hola
привет!
Dear Visitor, welcome and thank you for visiting my portfolio! Throughout my travels, I was always fascinated with how language has the power to open up new worlds. After a fulfilling career as a Chef, I now find myself pursuing my love of languages and a new calling in language studies and education.
Highlights of My CV
Since Fall of 2022 I have been working with the Indo Pacific Languages and Literatures Department at UH Mānoa (UHM) as their Administrative and Fiscal Support Specialist.
I have a diverse academic background with degrees from the following institutions.
B.A in Second Language Studies | University of Hawai'i at Mānoa
B.A Philippine Language and Culture | University of Hawai'i at Mānoa
B.S Management | Ateneo de Manila University
I always had a passion for languages. I speak Filipino and English fluently but I can also hold a conversation in Cebuano, German and Spanish. During my spare time, I use learning apps to study other languages such as Russian, Japanese and French, although I must admit I'm still a beginner in these.
