I told the story of how I started in a low-paying job in our state university (University of the Philippines) which eventually got me into a high-significance project for the country’s flagship Disaster Risk Reduction & Mitigation initiative... which was still low-paying. Haha. But it was a steep growth: I was playing both technical and leadership roles in a high-impact project where the most important benchmark we measured was “how many lives were lost after a Typhoon”. We were on the news every week. Different governments visited our offices. I was speaking at conferences.
