To exist, humanly, is to name the world, to change it.
— Paulo Freire

I’m an early-career academic with a multidisciplinary background in political economy, public administration, policy studies, and industrial and SME policies.

Currently pursuing my Ph.D. at the National Graduate Institute for Policy Studies (GRIPS) in Tokyo, I earned my Master of Arts from National Chengchi University and my Bachelor of Public Administration from the University of the Philippines.

For my dissertation, I intend to challenge how Philippine political economy is conventionally framed as neopatrimonial by looking at the history of the country’s semiconductor industry.

I am always open to collaborations and opportunities! For inquiries, please email or book a consultation.
