He Prepared Me Before the Blessing
Before God gave me my business, He gave me everything I needed to build it—faith, strength, patience, and most of all, Jesus.

God made success possible—and this is our purpose: to give back.


Before He gave me success, God placed me in situations that tested my heart. I worked as a cleaner, and that was one of the hardest seasons of my life. I cried every day. My germophobia made every task painful. I felt dirty, weak, and ashamed. I hated the job and even started hating myself. But now I see—God was humbling me. He was teaching me to serve, to understand, and to see beauty in what seems small.
Then came my restaurant journey. I worked 16-hour days, moving from dishwasher to cook, then to chef. The kitchen heat, the bruises, the cuts, and the endless hours tested me. I was shouted at, doubted, and mocked. I lost sleep, lost hobbies, and nearly lost myself. But even in those moments of exhaustion, Jesus was there.
He didn’t give me my business right away because I wasn’t ready yet. I needed to learn obedience, humility, and faith. I needed to experience pain so I could appreciate His blessings fully. And through every tear and trial, Jesus prepared me.
When I finally surrendered everything to Him—my pride, my plans, my worries—He gave me peace. I realized that success isn’t something you build alone; it’s something God builds through you.
Now, I live with gratitude. My business isn’t just mine—it’s His. Every skill, every idea, every opportunity is a gift from the One who prepared me long before I even asked.
Jesus is the reason I stand strong. He is my foundation, my teacher, my strength. And I know that whatever comes next, He has already prepared the way.
Because before He gave me the blessing, He gave me Himself.
Before the success, there was surrender.
When I came to Finland, I already had a small business back in the Philippines. I was full of dreams, but I didn’t know that God had a bigger plan than I could ever imagine. I studied at TI Koulutus – Great Cut Fashion School, where I learned about hair, fashion, and aesthetics. Later, I studied business in Tampere, earning certificates that taught me how to handle a business with confidence and purpose.
My parents, who manage many businesses across the Philippines and even one here in Finland, became my first teachers in entrepreneurship. From them, I learned passion and discipline—but from Jesus, I learned purpose.

“I will give up whole nations to save your life, because you are precious to me and because I love you and give you honour.”
Isaiah 43:4

Jesus Christ
The Owner of all I possess.
