As a Filipina-American, I often felt unseen. Fashion lets me express who I am and create more space for representation.

What makes your style stand out?

I blend luxury with relatability, mixing designer pieces into everyday looks that inspire without ever feeling out of reach. As a Filipina-American, my perspective shapes my storytelling and adds authenticity. I’m not just wearing outfits—I’m redefining what it means for someone underrepresented in this space to step into it with confidence, proving that true style can be both aspirational and inclusive.

What’s your dream fashion moment?

My dream fashion moment is creating Sinta Yohané from the ground up and presenting it at a major fashion week. As a Filipina fashion creator, I want to highlight pieces that carry both heritage and modernity, showing the world a new voice in luxury. It’s about carving space where there hasn’t been enough representation, bringing fresh perspective, and proving that a brand born from passion and roots can stand proudly among the most recognized names in fashion.

What would you do with $20,000?

I’d allocate a portion to Sinta Yohané—covering production, packaging, and marketing—so the brand launches at the highest level. I’d also invest in my personal brand's growth, from PR pushes to event activations, to cement my place as a Filipina voice in fashion.
