1. Tell me about a time where you solved a particularly interesting problem.

There's been a lot of problems I've encountered, and everything has been solved. However, one of the
current particular interesting problems I can never forget is when I took engineering math in architecture,
and I needed to pass the subject even though mathematics is one of my weaknesses. Aside from this, I
am an irregular student and have no friends to ask about the subject, so I pleaded with my engineer
friend to help me understand my remaining math subjects, and so I passed the subjects.

2. What are you most excited about learning?

It always catches my attention when architecture and engineering become the topic. Because I believe
there is still more to learn, especially in building materials and methodologies. I am also interested in
learning about inventions and discoveries that are applicable to architecture.

3. What skills or talents seem totally unrelated to your career but that you enjoy pursuing on the
side?

Before I took the architecture course, aside from my passion for the arts and drawing, I also loved music.
I loved singing and playing instruments such as guitar, piano, and violin. This will be my stress reliever,
for my fun and entertainment.

4. What kind of impact are you most excited to make?

There's various impact I am excited to make, one of this is when I am designing structure in the design
class, I want to make something unique and innovative, another impact I am excited to make is when I
am doing plans and details in building technology class, and another one is my dream. I want to create
something that is inimitable and original.

5. When was a time things didn’t go as planned, and how did you handle it?

Honestly, one of the greatest heartbreaks I experienced was when I returned to school to continue my
bachelor's degree in architecture, but the dean told me that it was too long before I returned, and I am
not able to take the course anymore.However, I turned my focus on my job until I got promoted to be a
department head in the Technical Support Department, then I got the opportunity to enroll at NU
Manila to continue my bachelor's degree in architecture.
