One of the films he co-wrote, “as long as you are here”, won Best Screenplay at Gawad Sining Short Film Festival 2023. His debut film as a writer “Baka Búkas, Bukás Na” won two awards at Likhang Mulat Film Movements Festival 2022 and recognized as a finalist at RealiFilm 2023. His favorite genre is ‘slice of life’, which reflects in his writings as he incorporates bits of his personal life.

Hence, this motivated him to make films intended to be enjoyed by such a wide array of people.
