A few months ago I was approached to do an interview with Latino Alliance for their “Champions of Character�� piece. At first I was hesitant, for I speak minimal Spanish and because I grew up in a Filipino household I didn’t think my Latin roots were strong enough to be part of their online presence. [...]

Today I had the wonderful pleasure of being a guest on Coach Rea Wilke’s show, “Your Life Now.�� It was one of the most enlightening shows I’ve ever been part of.  Rea helped me understand the limits of the inflated ego, and her speaking style made our interview a breeze.

After hearing about the vast devastation hurricane Sandy bestowed upon the Northeast, I  scrambled for ways to help on a worldwide scale.

We became raw foodists a few weeks ago, so we primarily snack on fruits, nuts and vegetables, which give us continual boosts of energy. We also create smoothies which don’t [...]

Earlier this year when my Mom was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer my world collapsed and my life as I always knew it to be ceased to exist. I devoted my mind, body and soul in taking care of my Mom her declining health, spending every waking moment in the hospital. My brother was [...]

On September 15, 2011 I met with one of the curators of the 9/11 Memorial Museum to donate a photo I had taken of the World Trade Center on September 7, 2001, four days before the tragedy. I also gave the curator two signed copies of our book, “Pursuing Your Destiny: How to Overcome Adversity [...]

In my previous blog post I discussed the new addition to my garden…a beautiful aloe vera plant, inherited by my beloved Mom. I’m happy to announce that the plant is very content in my greenhouse and growing so rapidly that it’s produced pups! Knowing that aloe vera has many medicinal properties, including cooling the skin [...]
