I started as struggling Architect from the Philippines looking for a good life. With dreams and perseverance and after the whole recruitment hardship, I am fortunately hired by a Japanese construction company who sponsored me under H1 US visa to work for their development project in Guam, USA. my entry port to United States the land of opportunity. From Guam I learned the process of employment how to find companies from finish project to new project. I got involved in construction projects from resort and hotel development and airport construction. In Guam also I started a family. I met my lovely wife, a US citizen and we are blessed to have one child, my son. I got my immigrant status thru my wife and not to worry about expiring my H1 visa. I worked hard raising my family normally until one day we decided to move on and transfer to US mainland.
