“Boom moderated a training course at CBRE for me. He commands the space that he's in. As a speaker, he always impresses me with his
delivery, topic, positivity, humor and connectedness with his audience. He is a master. His devotion to helping others become competent
speakers is admirable, and so is his manner of giving constructive criticism. He leaves his audience feeling inspired and empowered.”

“I have outsourced some of my writing requirements to Boom. Whether it is web copywriting, a blog post or an article, Boom has the skills to
produce well-written and engaging write-ups. He may be expensive but I never mind paying a premium to get quality results at par or even
better than native English writers.”

“Boom is multi-talented and has a multi-faceted background. He is a hard-core technical person with more than ample competencies in the
soft skills. Writing is part creativity and part sweat and blood but what really drives results in this area is the writer's purpose. Boom is a
leader in the direction of authentic purpose. Sharing ideas and working with Boom has always been a pleasure.”

“I met Boom in our Toastmasters club. Impassioned, eloquent and engaging are the words, I feel, aptly describes Boom as a speaker. He is not
Division B Champion for nothing. Every time Boom delivers a speech, he leaves no doubt about his flare for public speaking. Boom is an
excellent speaker, period. Yet, he also has knack for creative writing. His "Penstrokes" blog speaks well about his talent. When I need someone
to write articles for me, I usually turn to Boom for help. Even if the lead-time I give him is short (less than a day to be exact), he is always able
to come up with well-written articles. Boom's strength, both as a speaker and as a writer, is more than about style. Boom speaks and writes
from his heart, and that's what sets him apart.”

“Boom has a natural talent for public speaking. He possesses a rich and diverse experience that gives him the needed reference to talk just
about anything from starting a business, leading an organization to life in general. Boom is a voracious researcher and a technology maven.
These two passions enhance his ability to talk and offer advice on various matters. Boom is also a prolific and flexible writer. He writes well
and can write practically about anything. Armed with vast exposure in various businesses, managerial experience, a hunger for knowledge
and a natural people talent, Boom always has something useful to share. Boom blogs, tells stories and writes professionally. If you need
someone for public speaking engagements, training or writing jobs, Boom is it.”

asked him to help in our business writing to US clients with very pleasing results. We are now good friends and I highly recommend him."

“Boom is a powerful speaker who seems to have an answer for everything. We teasingly call him the 'walking encyclopaedia', and if you get
to talk to him, you'll know why. He thrives on the stage or in front of an audience and can bring even a hostile crowd to agree with him when
he speaks. When I hire him for training jobs, it always makes my work easier because after he speaks, the audience is now ready to accept
what I have to say. Also, whenever I need some writing or copywriting done, I only turn to Boom. He is probably the only writer I've ever
worked with that really takes the time to listen to what I say. Sometimes, all I have to do is call him on the phone and give him instructions
and he immediately comes up with well written work in just minutes. For training or writing, I don't regret hiring Boom.”

“I've known Boom since 1994. He was the Training Manager of the first company I worked with right after college, the Toyota Quezon
Avenue. He was a passionate trainer back then and his enthusiasm was contagious. He was among a few people who influenced me to pursue
a career in People Training and Development. Fourteen years since I last saw him, our paths have crossed and in mid year of 2010, I asked
him to guest on my show, The Business Portal: On the Corporate World on GNN Channel 21. His talent, passion and skills were apparent
during the show which compelled our director to offer him a show of his own. I was not surprised a bit with the director's decision because I
knew he had what it takes to be a business talk show host. I am proud to play a role in Boom's new endeavour and am glad to be associated
with him. I know that the show he has now is his global platform to change the world through his insightful ideas and impassioned pursuit of
greatness. More power to you Boom and to your show SME Forum!”
