About

In the early days, April Bernardo’s journey started with nothing but grit, a drive for self-reliance, and a tiny netbook that symbolized her first hard-earned investment. Determined to make her own way, she jumped headlong into the world of online freelancing, writing articles for a UK-based medical student, one of her first clients. The task was daunting: 15 articles a day, 7 days a week, for a meager Php 600 daily. But instead of being intimidated, she saw it as her chance.

That netbook wasn’t just a machine; it was her gateway to freedom. With her own computer, she could take on more clients, meet deadlines faster, and, most importantly, carve out her own path without relying on anyone.

By 2023, April had come a long way from her days of sleepless nights and marathon article-writing. She evolved from a tireless virtual assistant to a successful consultant, launching and scaling multiple ventures while continuing to invest in her growth and skills. Her humble netbook, once a lifeline for her and her family, became a treasured reminder of all she’d built from scratch.
