Kablaaw [Hello]! I am Roma, or in Baybayin [Filipino Indigenous script], ᜇ᜔ᜋ.

Born and raised in the Philippines 🇵🇭 [of Northern Luzon ancestry] and currently enjoying the opportunity to live and work in the Land of the Arapaho, Ute, and Cheyenne Peoples [Boulder, Colorado] while exploring other parts of the world. 

​I am currently the Product and Marketing Lead at Integrated Work. I have over 14 years of combined experience in product development, marketing communications, brand & design, project management, customer success management, operations, teaching, and training. Outside of work, I enjoy activities that challenge my body and mind such as rock and ice climbing, gravel cycling, triathlon, sport shooting, and yoga. All these and my formal training in Human Performance Psychology, contribute to my understanding of human performance, motivation, and drive when working with teams and on projects.

What does my logo mean?

Ano ang ibig sabihin ng aking logo?

Kalinga Tattoo Motif: Mountains

These mountain designs are often found on the chests of Kalinga men and the arms of the women. On their own, they are mountains. When they face each other, they represent the paths and rivers in between the mountains as well. Symbolically, this has a deeper meaning of guiding the individual on the proper path or flow in life.

The Kalinga people are an indigenous ethnic group whose ancestral domain is in the Cordillera Mountain Range of the northern Philippines. The Kalinga people have a reputation for being “the strong people of the Cordilleras.” At the same time, Kalingas greatly value family and kinship; thus, the household, extended household of the kinship circle, and territorial region are significant units of Kalinga society. In the past, they gained leadership and respect through headhunting, along with other skills at which an individual excelled. Their neighbors and even invaders feared them due to their reputations as headhunters. In fact, the name Kalinga, which originated from the Gaddang and Ibanag languages, means “headhunter.” Learn more...
