Where are you from?

I was born in the Philippines and moved to Vancouver as a child. Now I live in Toronto.

What do you do?

I am a music producer / graphic designer. Before I become a music producer I was active in the b-boy community. I still break every once in a while but more for the sake of having fun instead of competing.

What is your dream creative project?

My dream creative project would be to work with other multidisciplinary artist on a large scale art series that includes filmography, photography, music, fashion, and animation.

What are your go-to tunes for… 

Rising? -  any of the Soulection mixes

Exercising? - A$AP Mob

Partying? -  Hyphy / G Funk / Trap music

Where are your favorite places in Vancouver to… 

Eat? -  Guu

Dance? - Robson Square

Drink? -  Fortune Sound Club

Shop? - Thrift Stores on commercial drive

Why is running important to you?

Running is important to me because it helps keep my mind sharp and refreshed as well as maintaining my health.

What change/difference is the INRUN Crew making for the LGBTQ+ community?

I believe the InRun crew is giving the LGBTQ community more exposure when it comes to LGBTQ in sport. There isn’t enough representation when it comes to the LGBTQ community in sport. I think it’s dope that there is a place like the InRun crew where I can feel comfortable being myself while pursuing an active lifestyle with likeminded individuals.

Is there something you really want to do in your city that you haven't yet?

I haven’t snowboarded in Toronto yet but I would love to go up to Blue Mountain and see what it’s like snowboarding there vs. snowboarding in Vancouver.
