Why did I join AphiO: I really liked the idea of doing community service and in exchange I would receive Greek Letters. Also, I did a lot of community service when I was in high school, and I enjoyed doing it as well.
Why this excomm position: I want to thoroughly engage with the incoming pledges and inculcate them the ways of our fraternity.
Favorite Hobby: Reading, traveling, football, playing the guitar, photography, a whole lotta stuff, to be honest.
Favorite Quote: Give everything and take nothing.
My thoughts and hopes for the future of AphiO: To create a bond that truly resonates what Aphio is all about: Leadership, Friendship and Service.
Which was my favorite service project: The world affairs challenge is by far my favorite service project. I liked how so many motivated and driven kids are learning more about the world, and how to rectify the mistakes the modern man has made in the past.
What do I have to say to the incoming pledges: Please don’t think Rochelle and I are mean for making all of you learn information. It’s our job, so you guys can definitely tough it out.
If I could change the world, I would cease the mass genocide in Darfur. I would end the brutal blood diamond trade in Africa. I would like to preserve everything that we have left in nature. I want to end world hunger. Teach everyone the meaning of appreciating people’s differences, Create a world that isn’t driven by corporate greed but by compassion and love.
Any last words: 20 year-old Filipino American man grown up in a small town now experiencing what it’s like to live in a big city. Yeah, that’s about it I guess.
