I like to figure things out, like deploying GPU virtual machines on Microsoft, Google, and Amazon cloud servers to play AAA+ PC games on maximum settings and on my Android devices.

I like to connect with people and to connect people in the here and now. I wanted to become a diplomat.

When I was in high school, the former U.S. Vice President visited the country to tour the school where I was studying, and my mother was assigned to meet her. My mother is a former school owner, a veteran businesswoman, and a loving parent. I knew love before I knew the word 'love' because of her. My father has a background in both law and medicine.

My mother, a former school owner, acquired Macintosh computers in the 90s and even books from the Books Across the Sea Foundation for her Montessori.

My first name, Khadijah, is Arabic. My mother named her former school after me. I know three languages: English, Tagalog, and basic Arabic. I'm 1/8 Spanish.

Our house near Ateneo de Manila University is decorated with pictures of my parents with a few of the former presidents of the country. I like that. My brothers attended Ateneo de Cagayan in Cagayan de Oro during their formative years.

I visited our old office from time to time on the 24th floor of the Philippine Stock Exchange Tower in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Manila, Philippines.

My connections of other nationalities, like our friends who live, work, and have businesses in Dubai or those from the US, travel to the Philippines to meet my mother and me, sometimes at the Shangri-La in Bonifacio Global City, Taguig, Manila, Philippines.

My works are on Barnes and Noble, Apple Bookstore, Kobo, and other places. My voice work is on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Tidal, Facebook and Instagram, and 200+ other places worldwide, including for commercial and business licensing.

Interactions with individuals from over 60 nationalities for marketing my published works have broadened my global perspective, enriching my research capabilities and allowing me to offer a truly international outlook.

There's so much room for even more learning in my life. I like that. There's so much knowledge and new experiences to consume. I have my heart in the right place when I tell those around me to always broaden their horizons and see the world uniquely. I always broaden my horizons and healthily apply my knowledge and experiences.

I built my first computer at the age of eight-years-old. I have won contests held by corporations like Petron, the gasoline company, and even received exclusive freebies from international companies like Scribd, Inc. (even an Android tablet overseas!). Recently, I participated in a contest held by the Tourism Promotions Board of the Philippines with my entry, "A Beautiful Day in Nueva Ecija". As a writer and YouTube channel owner, I continue to receive exclusive items from a colorful assortment of companies.

I've written over a million words since 2014 and published three books. My IQ is 130, the old average to be considered a genius. The IQ needed now is at least 180.

Reading and writing 1,000,000 words in a decade is incredible, but without healthily applying what you learn, it's not valuable. I always ask my learners to ask themselves, "Am I winning or am I losing?" The key is to always be learning and healthily applying their knowledge to broaden their horizons, and they will always be winning.

At fourteen, I turned an ordinary concept into a fully functioning, mobile-friendly, SEO-friendly WordPress theme. I apply my knowledge from various fields to create a valuable, straightforward digital marketing approach, identifying opportunities and creating experiences.

My favorite books: The Power of Habits, The Science of Self-Learning, Speed Reading, and The Mind Models.

My favorite articles: The Power of Habits Blinkist book summary, The Science of Self-Learning Blinkist book summary, Speed Reading Blinkist book summary, The Mind Models Blinkist book summary, and one TIME Magazine article.

My favorite tools: Canva, Try Pitch, ChatGPT, Jasper AI, and SurferSEO.

My role model: I am fond of learning from the reading habits of Bill Gates. He's often seen reading.

I'm continuously sampling even more learning experiences, like taking my SEO copywriting skills up a notch, and continuously healthily applying my knowledge.

I use Brian Dean's Backlinko strategy for keyword research by analyzing competitor content to identify their top-ranking keywords. I then apply the Skyscraper technique to create superior, evergreen content. My objective is to produce one evergreen post that attracts ongoing traffic from search engines and social media, ensuring they remain relevant and valuable over time.

I also invested time in educational resources. For example, I read books like "The Power of Habit" by Charles Duhigg to understand consumer behavior and apply it to my marketing strategy. Using resources like Blinkist to get summaries of helpful books quickly also proved beneficial.

I have a highly observant, creative, and analytical nature which lets me consume knowledge up until the wee hours of the morning and healthily apply my knowledge.

There's a whirlwind and lightning in my heart for consuming knowledge. There's an exhaustible list of articles online to consume like consuming vice. There's an exhaustible catalog of books, newsletters, pamphlets, and brochures. There's an exhaustible list of companies to call, like banks and local broadcasting companies, and it's exhilarating to gain so much knowledge.

And then, there's me, consuming knowledge, like there's no tomorrow. I dreamed of being a lawyer. I also dreamed of being published in places like TIME magazine and Forbes. Whether or not I get published in TIME and Forbes as an author, it's okay. I'll carry on my grand adventures with a song in my heart. I keep myself busy around the clock by looking after my aging parents. I have become quite the fixture in my home, almost like furniture, because of all the days spent indoors consuming knowledge until the wee hours of the morning. There's a whirlwind in my heart for healthily applying my knowledge.

I've worked as a Century Sales Officer for a top real estate developer in the Philippines, a Customer Support Representative, an International Marketing Manager for another leading real estate developer, a Technical Support Representative, and in between, I tried freelance writing, web designing, voice-acting or voice-narration work, resume writing, essay writing, and even became a published book author of three books.

I learned everything there is to know about WordPress online because it's an open-source content management software, after all. At a very young age, I turned an ordinary concept into a WordPress theme, when I learned CSS, and HTML, and modified WordPress plugins to meet the requirements of my first client.

I'm an author of three books in 60+ countries including on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and other places. My music is on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other places.

Outside of my professional life, I cherish these days when I can pray, listen to music, exercise charity, read, and connect with friends and loved ones, even if it's limited to virtual interactions. They remind me of the importance of taking time for oneself and appreciating the simple pleasures that each day brings.

My love for reading began at a very young age. I started reading and writing in English when I was just three years old. Over the years, this early start has blossomed into a lifelong passion for books. Reading has not only been a source of knowledge but also a means of personal growth and development. It’s a habit that I cherish and continue to nurture through platforms like Everand (formerly Scribd, Inc.), a multinational or international company that granted me an exclusive membership to let me read on their digital reading platforms for an entire year for free.

Reading is not just a hobby; it’s a way to see the world differently and apply learned knowledge to improve oneself. Whether it’s reading a good book, an online article, or even a memo on a bulletin board, every bit of reading contributes to personal growth. For me, reading is the best form of mental exercise and anti-aging activity. It keeps my mind sharp and my perspectives fresh.

One of my favorite short stories from high school is “The Bet” by Anton Chekhov. This story, about a lawyer and a banker who bet millions that the lawyer couldn’t endure 15 years in solitary confinement, underscores the profound value of reading. The lawyer spends his years in solitude immersed in books, ultimately finding a deeper meaning in life. This story highlights how reading can be a source of strength and enlightenment, even in the most challenging circumstances.

Thank you for your valuable time.

God bless, everyone.
