About Me...

 Hello,

  My name is Oliver, a Filipino American born in SF and raised in Daly City.  I was raised by two hard working and awesome parents who always instilled the importance of family, our Filipino heritage, and embracing the people around us.  I grew up in the bay area cheering for the 49ers (Football), Warriors (Basketball), Giants (Baseball), Earthquakes (Soccer), and Sharks (Hockey)!  I love the diversity of the people here in the bay as well as the cultural cuisine, ever changing local weather, iconic sceneries, and the championship level atmosphere here near the city by the bay.

  Family is thee most important thing in my life.  I wouldn't be who I am without them.  I grew up with two younger brothers who were my rivals while at the same time my best friends.  Being the eldest, I was always reminded about my responsibilities as a brother and duties as a son.  I learned about being productive with my hands as it gave me the ability to create or repair, how to be a gentleman, and working not just hard but smart all from my father.  My mother taught me about kindness, respect, and sacrifice as she was a nurse who worked long hours yet had time to cook, clean, and take care of us.

  Now I have a family of my own, consisting of 2 daughters whom I love with all my heart and the reason for me to push myself to become better everyday.  I'm also lucky to have the love of my life, who I've known since Kindergarten and believe it or not was my first school crush ever.  We both stayed in touch throughout our educational paths only to find each other later on in life to share a new journey consisting of fun adventures together (aka never ending Disneyland trips and adopting to the Hawaiian way of life).  We continue to grow, laugh, love, and cherish every moment with each other.
