Welcome to "You're Filipino??"

Congratulations, for stumbling onto my little corner of the web!

As the title suggests, I am a Filipino-American, and oftentimes, I get a quizzicle look when a person first hears that.  Part of the reason for that is because I have mestizo features because my grandfather was a Spaniard and therefore, I will many times be mistaken for someone of Hispanic heritage.  But in fact, I am more Filipino than I am Spanish.

Filipinos and Filipino-American have made significant contributions to the social, cultural, scientific, and entertainment facets of American society.  This blog seeks to highlight those people!

I hope you enjoy!  I'm always willing to learn about famous (and infamous) people who are proud to call themselves Filipino!
