I can still remember, Jovel and Roshan Tarrosa discussing in the pantry about the concept of selling Filipino delicacies online. I was just passing by to get some water when I heard about Pinoy Delicacy. Out of the blue, I blurted out why not, "Pinoy Deli Kasi". meaning "delicious kasi'. So the name came as such. Til this day, I'm proud to be part of this history. Yes, I was the secretary mentioned in the PhilStar article IT Exec Quits Job To Sell Danggit, Pusit Online.

Digital camera back then is stored in a floppy disk so Jovel has to save the shots from time to time because of the limited capacity of the disk. I am also privileged to be tapped by Jovel to do the souvenir giveaways of Sony Ericson. We were able provide 150 boxes of Philippine delicacies during an event in Shangrilla Hotel Mactan. We decorated the boxes with native themed elements and arranged the delicacies inside. Our house was full of boxes we can't see each other. It was a Sunday and my whole family helped packed the goods. We finished packing til around 3am the following day. And I still need to go to work on that day.
Jovel introduced technology evangelism in the areas of E-commerce, IT consumerization, and Creative Social Media Strategies among others. He is also a popular speaker and content contributor for various businesses, industry conferences, and media (print, broadcast, the internet.)
