Here are some of my most memorable international speaking engagements, where I had the opportunity to share my expertise in agriculture and introduce high school students in North Dakota to the richness of Filipino culture. These sessions allowed for a unique exchange of knowledge and cultural insights, inspiring students to see agriculture from a global perspective.

In less than a year, I have had the honor of speaking at national conferences targeting youth audiences. During these engagements, I inspired future agribusiness leaders, guided high school students in their ideation projects, emphasized the critical role of agriculture in ensuring food security, and mentored aspiring licensed agriculturists. Each opportunity has allowed me to share my passion for agriculture and nurture the next generation of leaders in the field.

The Glow-Up That We Wanted: Sprouting Up to Rebrand Agriculture
ICropS Seminar Series: Youth in Agriculture, Institute of Crop Science, College of Agriculture and Food Science, University of the Philippines Los Banos. May 25, 2023.

Engaging with high school students has become a true passion for me, particularly as I work to rebrand agriculture in the Philippines. A key aspect of this mission is to educate Filipino youth about the true essence of agriculture. I have had the privilege of speaking at various schools across Laguna (Region 4A) and in other provinces, including Pangasinan (Region 1), Isabela (Region 2) and Bataan (Region 3). These experiences allow me to inspire the next generation and reshape their perceptions of agriculture's vital role in our society.
