I received my Bachelor degree in fashion design and merchandising in 2011 at the De La Salle College of Saint Benilde in the Philippines. While I was studying, I started working as a sales representative in a start-up store called "Almost Famous," that supported local Filipino designers . After I graduated, I worked as a "Responsible" at Zara. To further educate myself in merchandise marketing, I moved to San Francisco to obtain a professional degree at the school of Fashion Design and Merchandising.
