I majored in Communication in one of the prime universities in the Philippines. Towards the end of grade school until the end of my college years, I was actively participating in elocution contests and dramatics. I would have acted as the voice of one of the witches in Shakespeare's Hamlet, a play staged by the Dulaang UP, a theater ensemble at the University of the Philippines, had there not been an urgent personal concern during the first reading of the script. However, I got the opportunity to be a part of a couple more theatrical staging -- the first in the Filipino adaptation of the Scrooge and the second, in an experimental theater staging of the Comilon Farms. I also got a couple of small parts for the airing of one episode of two TV prime time shows way back in college.
Though I have a soft and high-pitched singing voice, my voice range is rather flexible.
A few years after graduating, I also got hired as a radio announcer cum producer for a non-profit radio station where I also got to do vox pop (voice of the people) and voice-overs. It was a short stint, however.
From 2008 up to the present, I have been providing content (blogs, articles, product reviews, academic papers, business proposal, and other web content to clients online).
I have also been using my voice by singing in the choir since 1987.
