Hi, it’s me. 👋

Still here. Still a geek. Just… a little more grown.

If you’ve been here before — hello again. If you’re new, welcome!

GeekGirlManila started as a space for a younger version of me to talk about all the things I loved: gadgets, games, girl stuff, and general geekery. And honestly? Not much has changed, except maybe the version of me behind the keyboard.

So, what’s new?

These days, I’m a multimedia producer for PhilSTAR Tech, where I cover the latest in gadgets, apps, AI, and all the curious things happening in the tech world. It’s been fun, and also a reminder that even as I “grow up,” I’ve never really outgrown my geeky side.

Now, I’m exploring tech not just for play, but for purpose — AI-powered wearables, pop culture tech crossovers, and games that speak to the heart (or at least your inner tita gamer). I also occasionally stream odd little gems, write about weird tech news, and yes, still fall for anything pink, cute, and just a little overengineered.

You’ll still find the same wide-eyed curiosity here, just now with a softer voice and a sharper filter. I’ll be writing more from lived experience, less from internet trends.

Expect:

• Thoughtful gadget reviews (no hard-sell, just real use)
• Bits and bobs from my work at PhilSTAR Tech (including the fun stuff that doesn’t make the final cut)
• Travel logs, tech-friendly tips, and accidental adventures
• Gaming picks, nostalgic throwbacks, and things that make me go “this is so me”
• And lastly, a lot of cat interruptions

Thanks for being here.

Let’s see where this grown-up geek journey takes us. 🚀
