Ms PH Earth 2013 LIVE poll results

MANILA, Philippines – In line with the Miss Philippines Earth 2013 pageant’s water conservation theme, this 24-year-old registered nurse says, “The tip I can share to promote water cooperation is to lead by example starting in our community through the widest possible information dissemination and public awareness campaign that water is one of the most valuable natural resources in the world so we have to conserve and protect water sources the best way we can.”

Describe your childhood/growing-up years (8-13 years old):

Growing up, I was carefree and I loved to play. I was also diligent in my studies.

Most memorable moment:

The first time I set foot on an aircraft.

What is your environmental advocacy and why did you choose this?

My environmental advocacy is to promote safe and potable water so that every household can have access to this resource especially in rural areas. I chose this advocacy because I used to live in an area where clean and safe water was not readily available and I know how hard this experience is.
