By helping insurers adopt Guidewire and AI, he is contributing to a more efficient, customer-centric, and competitive industry.

He is committed to helping Philippine insurers stay ahead of the curve and embrace these innovations to drive further transformation. His vision is a Philippine insurance sector that is globally competitive, technologically advanced, and focused on delivering exceptional value to its customers.
