Hi, I’m Mary Rose! Short for Mary Rose Joan. Okay, I know it’s still not short. People close to my heart call me Joan. My colleagues call me Mary or Mary Rose. And my friends, MR.

I am the youngest, and the only girl in the family.

I graduated from the University of the Philippines – Baguio, with a degree in Social Sciences. I majored in Economics, and minored in Psychology.

I dream of becoming multi-hyphenated or multi-slashie in the future, which kind of makes me a goal digger at present.

I’m a market researcher day in and day out, and a blogger-wannabe on the side.

I can be totally laid back or too adventurous, and sometimes there’s no in between.

I am a woman who is not lost, but wants to find out more about herself.
