Awards and Certificates

LinkedIn Learning Certificates

All of these certificates were obtained in the span of 2 years. While they are moderately dull for those who just have to get through them to get a grade, they are definitely useful when listened through thoroughly. A particular course that I sat through helped with job interviews---proper etiquette, what to prepare for, what not to do, etcetera. It definitely helped with the task that I was about to face (a mock interview for Philippine Red Cross) and future tasks as well, not to mention potential interviews in the future when I inevitably need to seek jobs.

Spoken Poetry 2nd Runner Up - 9th Foundation Week

The 9th Foundation Week was the first time I ever participated in an event this big since 6th grade. It was my first true foray into poetry, especially spoken poetry---and back then, I had no point of reference or experience with writing or performing spoken poetry. It was a good learning experience, however---helped me figure out what the faults in my writing were, and the faults in performing. It made future performing tasks I was given something I was more familiar with, and it set me up for a better performance.

High Honors (A.Y. 2024 - 2025)

My first year in the school and I somehow managed to be high honors. Go figure. I'm still very proud that I managed to do so well in my first year here, especially with all the hiccups along the way, but it does leave me with this pressure that I have to meet the same standards this year. I haven't let it get to me too much, but just enough for me to want to put more effort into things than I would before.

21 Chump Street: The Musical (2025)

In collaboration with Mapua Curtain Call. Faces censored for privacy.

Being part of a theater production on its own is crazy. Being in one of the main roles is crazier. And being one of the main roles in your first time being part of a production is even crazier. I'm still very thankful that I got to be a part of something so cool---being in the company of Curtain Call was an experience that I couldn't compare to anything else, and I'm glad it went through---our funds went to our beneficiary, House of Hope Foundation for Kids With Cancer Inc., and we ended up handling a community outreach later in the year.
