Discovered surfing at the age of 5, it was introduced to me by my uncle. He was also the one who taught and trained me to surf. Started professional competition in 2017.

I'm from a small island in the Philippines known for its white sand beaches and perfect barreling waves. My dream is to represent my country and make my family proud.

I’m from a small surf island in the Philippines, I’ve been surfing since I was 5 starting on a piece of ply wood. I got to join international level when wsl came to my home break and have won the qs in cloud 9 twice. I’ve spent the last year and a half in Australia which was a great experience for me to try different types of waves and join a lot more comps.
