What qualifies you to be the first Thomasian Youth Ambassadress?
“For the past 3 years of my existence in UST, I have already adapted to the Thomasian culture wherein its advocacies and values were imbibed in me. That’s why I can say that I am proudly ready to be the source of influence and give my best effort to voice out and act for sake of a great cause not only for my fellow Thomasians but also for other people who seek assistance. I am also ready to enhance my skills as a productive Thomasian leader and promote an open-minded Thomasian community.”
How do you value education?
“Education is a way of life. Every day we learn and this learning should not only remain as knowledge, but rather be applied and shared to others.”
How can you share the light of education to the indigenous people?
“I would be able to share the light of education to the indigenous people through sharing my time to teach and immerse myself with them. Empowering the indigenous people with even the basic skills of reading and writing will leave them a skill enough to serve as a head start through the joyous ride of learning.”
Why should the Thomasian community vote for you?
“If I will be blessed to have the hearts of the Thomasian community, I would be able to take a big step forward towards maximizing my utmost potential in unleashing the leadership in me and in every Thomasian leader. Having the Thomasian’s trust would empower me and help bring my goals to its full realizations. This will also allow me to be more motivated to do the best that I can as a light of influence and a servant to others.”
