By day, I serve as a Transformation Facilitator with Vanguard Transformation Partners, where I help design and run Bible-based programs that help cultivate values-driven leaders in the marketplace. Beyond the four walls of the office, I serve as a pastor at Christian Gospel Center–Bilog, walking with people who wants to grow their relationship with Jesus. At the core of everything I do is a simple conviction: growth happens best when faith is lived, not just learned.

My work in counseling reflects a holistic approach, integrating theology and psychology, with a particular heart for young adults and young couples. I currently serve as an outsourced counselor at Shalom Counseling Services, helping individuals rediscover identity, healing, and wholeness in Christ.

I’m also a tech-savvy minimalist who believes that the right tools—used simply—can support clarity, creativity, and focus. On Medium, I write about tech, growth, mindfulness, and personal productivity, often through the lens of minimalism and intentional use of tools. If a note-taking app, a well-designed system, or even a humble spreadsheet can help someone live with more purpose, I’m interested.
