Hi everyone,

Trish Fontanilla here, BOSFilipinos co-founder + Chief Energy Officer!

You know, it takes a village to raise a community, and these amazing people have helped BOSFilipinos grow.

We’re especially grateful for:

• Leila Amerling and Bianca Garcia, who helped start BOSFilipinos in 2017, and were instrumental in the first couple years of BF before stepping away for their own life adventures

• Matt Nagy, who created our logo and the first version of our website

• Roland Calupe, chef at our first pop-up

• Katie Milliken, our first podcast host (we wouldn’t have a podcast without her!) + content/event contributor

• Hyacinth Empinado, who you may know from her voiceovers in our Tagalog video series, she was also a multimedia content contributor and editor

• Additional thanks to content/marketing/event contributors through the years: Reina Adriano, Christine Del Castillo, Philjay Solar, Sophie De Castro, Helena Berbano, Melissa Obleada, Mark Cordova, and Mihaela Hinayon.
