At Bizmates Philippines, Inc., I coach business professionals to communicate clearly and confidently in international work settings. I've worked with 1,000+ people across industries, from frontline employees to C-suite executives, tailoring coaching to meetings, presentations, client calls, and everyday workplace conversations.

At Gmyx Rockafella Band Rehearsal and Recording Studio, I co-ran the business for over 17 years, handling operations and building lasting relationships with musicians and bands. Earlier, I supervised teams across multiple retail locations at Greentelcommunications Trading Inc.

My client-facing experience also includes handling 200+ daily customer conversations through chat and SMS at NMS Philippines. I believe confidence comes first, and that people don't need perfect English to say what they mean.
