It has been my long time dream to become a writer, even when I was still in my pigtails. Fate though had other plans for me.

In spite of my pursuing a different profession and even amidst my busy schedule in the academe, I still have not given up on my dream.

I am an allied medical professional and I am connected with a University right now. I enjoy this challenging endeavour because in learning, one has to be creative and dynamic. I believe too that learning is a lifelong process.

Contrary to common perception, the arts, sciences and education are a perfectly dynamic trio.
