Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My inspiration comes from the resilience and untapped potential of Filipino freelancers. I’ve seen how their talent and dedication shine, yet they often lack platforms that truly represent them on a global scale. This drives me to build opportunities that empower not just individuals but entire communities. My passion is further fueled by the belief that businesses can be a force for good, as seen in our GenieScholar initiative, which funds education for underprivileged children.

How do you stay motivated?

I stay motivated by focusing on the impact I can create. Knowing that RemoteGenies empowers Filipino freelancers to achieve financial independence and helps clients worldwide inspires me daily. Seeing the lives transformed by our GenieScholar initiative, which funds education for underprivileged children, fuels my passion. Challenges become opportunities when I remind myself of the bigger picture: building a legacy of empowerment and proving that business can be a catalyst for change.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With $25,000, I would invest in a strategic marketing campaign to amplify RemoteGenies’ reach globally. This includes targeted digital ads, content creation, and partnerships to showcase the unique value of our pre-vetted Filipino freelancers. The funds would also enhance our brand visibility, attract more clients, and create more job opportunities for freelancers, ultimately driving sustainable growth and furthering our mission to empower Filipino talent.
