Writing had always been a favorite activity since I was young. Ironically, it was another favorite pastime --photography--which introduced me to the dynamic world of publishing. Although I never really had any formal training in photography, my first real job was as a photographer. I was a self-taught photographer, just as I was a self-taught journalist. Interestingly, I landed both jobs by chance.
In my twenties I worked for a British-owned publishing firm based in Hong Kong --first as a travel photographer, then as a journalist. Then I became a free lance writer and began writing for several inflight magazines and Asia Magazine, which was published by the South China Morning Post. At the same time, I became the editor of "Pockets of Knowledge and Fun," a children's magazine published in the Philippines. Later, I wrote two books for children: "Treasured Tales for Children" and "Great Kids!" Both were published and marketed in my native country, the Philippines.
After nearly a decade of writing, I took a sabbatical and delved into the healing arts. I became a reiki master/teacher and began a private practice as a reiki therapist in the Philippines.
Today I am a freelance journalist based in the Philippines where I also have a private practice as a reiki therapist and teacher.
