His impeccable educational background gives us a foretaste of the kind of educational administrator he was bound to become. Having earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy, cum laude, in three and a half years from the University of the Philippines where he was inducted to the prestigious Pi Gamma Mu International Honor Society in Social Science and The Honor Society of Phi Kappa Phi, he embarked on a sojourn in medicine at the same university but realized soon that he had a different kind of calling. Thereafter, he pursued a degree in law where he juggled time between his professorial duties and law studies while at the same time commencing a straight Doctor of Philosophy in Metaphysics program. He finished the said doctorate at the American College of Metaphysical Theology in Minneapolis, Minnesota, earning him a promotion from Assistant Professor to Associate Professor. Because of his outstanding work in his Doctoral thesis, entitled “Soulmates: An Omnipresent Perspective”, he was bestowed the title of Fellow of the American College of Metaphysical Theology. On a different note, he placed tenth (10th) in the Real Estate Brokers Licensure Examination in 2006. Several years later, he earned a Master of Laws in International Business Law at Boston University in Boston, Massachusetts, USA where he became part of the inaugural graduating batch under a scholarship given to him by his grand aunt.
A consistent honor student from elementary (Valedictorian) to high school (Salutatorian), he was a recipient of numerous academic and leadership awards, the most significant of which were as Champion of the National Rizal Essay Writing Contest (High School Division) given by the Knights of Rizal and as St. Bro. Miguel Leadership Awardee for Arts and Letters (High School).
