His passion for teaching and educating the youth inspired him and his wife to establish a preschool in 2004. Sixteen years after, in 2020, the preschool has grown into a complete basic education institution, the Wellspring of Grace School with Elementary, Junior High School, and Senior High School. His advocacy extends to his being an Appreciative Inquiry (AI) Practitioner, a Rotarian, and more than anything, a servant leader serving as Associate Pastor of a Christian church in San Pedro, Laguna.
