Bio

Driven by ambition, purpose and passionate about impact - I am determined in proving that your past circumstances do not define your future. I thrive in environments that push me to challenge current norms and to try unconventional ways of solving problems. Born in the Philippines, grew up in Las Vegas, and now thriving in San Francisco Bay Area. Currently changing an industry, one dress at a time. I am striving for Queenly to reflect the progressive, inclusive goals that I stand for and to be able to provide access and affordability to women everywhere. I am very passionate about having diversity and representation in fashion & tech, by including immense size inclusion with our inventory, as well as being radically inclusive in our photoshoot campaigns by having minority, plus-size and trans women represent our brand. Tech, marketplaces, networking, fundraising, mentorship, building communities, and the ever-growing formal wear and pageant industry are some of my areas of expertise. I’m open to chatting, feel free to message me!
