Our story began in 2023 as colleagues in the Department of Finance.
Together with a few fellow staffers—now longtime friends—we bonded over position papers, a few training sessions, but more often over post-work meals in Manila, or even up to QC.
We definitely enjoyed the time we spent with each other, which eventually blossomed into the love we have today.
A couple of years later, and now with our separate careers, we can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together.
