I was given numerous tasks by my mentor to improve my career prospects and talk about my plans for the future. I was also one of the chosen to have a coach from ICF (International Coaching Federation) in guiding me what I really want for myself. This program helped me be grateful for the present and not always think of multiple futures that have yet to happen.

Retail Assistant (Volunteer)

I proudly hold a Masters of Economics from The University of Queensland as a recent graduate. My interest in numbers stems from the need to know how the world works through numbers. With my diverse background from being born in the Philippines, studying my Bachelor’s in China, then expanding my knowledge in Australia; I have been exposed to various cultures and observed each country’s economic development. I am very comfortable in using numbers, creating business models, researching or reading journal articles, and I am very enthusiastic to learn something new from anyone. Combining what I have learned thus far and to apply them to solve real-world problems has always been my dream. Delving deeper into theoretical concepts to obtain answers and learning how to live sustainably with scarce resources are familiar to me. In an unpredictable and fast-paced world, I am confident in adapting to the changes in my surroundings and meeting the highest standards of safety and performance across my discipline. Additionally, I love exercising and watching random documentaries. In short, I want a life that's bigger than every person whoever told me I can't and look back on the fears I will leave behind to make it happen.

I handle in-going and outgoing emails to potential partners or sponsors. I attend weekly meetings with the whole TEDxUQ Team to discuss our budget, catering, Partnership Tiers, and Prospectus leading up to our main event later this year. I draft proposals and research companies that we can collaborate with to help support TEDx's values.
