For almost to a decade I grew a bespoke software development and IT consultancy, ClinkIT, from a startup to a mid-sized enterprise (from 10 to 150 staff) where I wore multiple hats - from supporting ad hoc administrative work and solving incidents that arise; to project management and doing QA testing for custom software development projects in finance, sports, hospitality and government insurance; to setting up call center operations in the Philippines; to hiring dedicated remote software dev teams for US and AU based clients; to creating proposals and supporting negotiations for major projects; to setting up formal org structures across sales, project management, various engineering teams, HR, finance, and marketing; and finally, navigating consensus of
leadership across these functions to align with overall strategy.

I also navigated the company through the critical phases of the COVID-19 (from
sustaining our client relationships to implementing staffing decisions to budget controls and managing morale during extreme uncertainty) which is probably the most challenging organizational experience and formative leadership experience I’ve gone through to date.

I started engaging with EA ideas in 2020 through ‘The Precipice’ and started working as a part-time community organizer for EA Philippines in 2021. In parallel, I co-founded High Impact Recruitment to address the need for hiring services across impact orgs and started working full-time in EA. I joined Anti Entropy in 2022, thinking that with my broad ops experience, I could create more impact by being able to offer operations support across the board on top of hiring services as well as creating pro-bono operations-related resources for EA. I served as its Executive Director until 2024 and went on a paternity break.

After returning to work in 2025, given the current trajectory of how AI models are getting better as well as the massive developments to compute (and the recent announcements to spend an enormous amount of resources to get
more!), I have updated on the urgency to ensure AGI is developed safely and aligned with human values. Since then, I aimed to focus exclusively on AGI risk mitigation by helping AI safety org founders and leaders run their organizations well.

I was part of the Peregrine Project (in the honor of the fastest animal alive), which was an attempt to get the world's leading minds, execution power, and funding to coordinate on the most promising and ambitious interventions given urgent timelines. Eventually, the founding team went on to pursue other paths but out of this a collection of our learnings were created synthesizing 200+ ideas for AI risk mitigation (riskmitigation.ai) as well as a research commission to systematically estimate the ML research pool among 3 million IT consultancy employees.

After this, given my curiosity on pursuing an unscoped area, I proceeded to explore Asia-related work with AI Safety Asia (AISA), and was instrumental in helping them reorganize their foundations, structure their ToC and strategy, drive hiring and team alignment efforts, and supported their fundraising.

I currently work on some AIS-related projects and as a fractional COO at Singapore AI Safety Hub's (SASH), creating a global AI safety and governance ecosystem - driving strategic projects and supporting its growth. I believe Singapore has an outsized potential to contribute to AIS as a whole and I'm excited to establish positioning it as a bridge for international AI safety coordination. SASH engages government and civil servants through briefings and its co-working space co-located with Lorong AI, run training programs to develop talent, seed research initiatives, and coordinate AI safety activities across the island and beyond.

I hope to meet with potential friends, allies, and partners and help make promising projects to build a more flourishing world.

P.S: Given my context as a member of EA Philippines and my conversations with other 'impact analysis' organizations, I believe that there is a gap on having more rigorous priorities research for potential interventions in the Philippines. I would be interested in speaking with folks who are looking to do these investigations and potentially coordinate with other actors to execute on them.

I work at Coefficient Giving on the Short Timelines Special Projects team. Previously I worked with Will MacAskill on What We Owe The Future as his Chief of Staff, participated in the first cohort of FHI's Research Scholars Programme (RSP), and then helped run it as one of its Project Managers. I also used to be the chair of the EA Infrastructure Fund.
Before that, my first EA-inspired jobs were with the Effective Altruism Foundation, e.g., running what is now the Center on Long-Term Risk. While I don't endorse their 'suffering-focused' stance on ethics, I'm still a board member there.
