and in during high school days. During this days, he participated activities. Member of the

Glee Club, ICT or such Media related competitions, different dance contests, etc.

family. But above all, he’s a Christian who believes he owes his all in all to our ever living

God. He trusted God’s ways and loving Him sincerely and heartily. Ever achievements he

I know Joffrel is not yet committed to what he finally wants to in the future but all I know he

hopes to be one of those professional doing graphics outside the Philippines specially in

Korea. He has this potential for he knows, he can do all things just by having God in his life

could enough.
