I began my career as an International Real Estate Agent, mastering both sales and marketing to attract clients in the Philippines. To generate quality leads, I explored strategies like social media, ads, cold-calling, email marketing, and even built my own website and Google My Business (GMB) profile. To my surprise, my website and GMB profile consistently delivered the best leads, achieving an 80% conversion rate.

When I decided to leave sales, I found myself reflecting on my next steps. I recalled my childhood dream of becoming an astronaut and my lifelong curiosity about technology. As a teenager, I taught myself how computers worked, a skill that stayed with me. I realized I had a knack for learning and solving problems through research.

This clarity led me to pursue a career in web development. With strong college grades in development and a determination to succeed, I dove into the field. Today, I’m an SEO specialist and web developer with my own small company, helping businesses grow their online presence and attract high-quality leads—just as I once did in real estate.
