What is the most difficult thing you did to prepare for the Mister International pageant?
As a student, it was a challenge to perform my duties as Mister International Philippines. At first it as very hard to manage my time as student and reigning king, but as long as you have the heart to do your job, it will be an easy task. And here I am, I’m about to receive my diploma in a few days and if I’m lucky, I might bring home the country’s 2nd Mister International title!
Social media seem to play a major role in pageantry nowadays. Do you think this is advantageous to you? Why or why not?
In this time and age, my country’s millenial fans are all prepared for the greatest battle in social media in any pageant. And I’m very proud that I have the support of the greatest pageant fans in the world.

Some people think that pageants are only for women. Convince them that they are wrong.
Beauty pageants are for all. It’s not about the gender, age or race. It is a great way of promoting equality. Like in the Philippines, beauty kings are as well received as beauty queens. The time has come.
What qualities do you feel you have that would make you a great Mister International?
Just being who I am and having a distinctive character.
