About me
I'm a product professional from the Philippines with experience in data center and managed services. I have experience in products and innovation in various ISPs and technology companies.
What else do I do?

Work History
Globe Telecom (2022 - 2022)
I managed several of Globe’s consumer and business products such as the well known public WiFi service, GoWiFi and its B2B product overlay, Wireless Connect. I delved deeper into software-based consumer products and innovation which has allowed me to have a deeper appreciation of the Agile methodology. I worked closely with my scrum team and stakeholders.
Total Information Management Corporation (2016-2021)
As the Lead for Product Management and Innovation, I helped drive the team’s sales performance through the pandemic turning 2020 and 2021 into the best years for our service portfolio. I helped the company secure landmark deals introducing new products to historically closed-off industries such as the finance and power sectors. Internally, I helped create and document the end-to-end product management process following ITIL standards as well as creating a balance between Waterfall and Agile that suited the company’s service portfolio covering everything from data center services to cloud and managed infrastructure services.
Shell Companies in the Philippines (2013 - 2016)
I started my career with Shell as an intern for the Human Resources department before I was hired to help start the landholding local entity. This is where I built the attributes I founded my career on: persistence, an eagerness to understand, and a high standard for my work.
