Bio

I grew up in a community where people speak Ilocano and Tagalog. I first learned English from my parents when I was a boy. They used to communicate with me in English so as for me to be better prepared for schooling since English is the language used in school.

Currently, I am working in a non-profit organization as a linguist translator since 2014.
