Meet the Team

Joeje Aika Blanes

joejeaika.blanes@cit.edu

In a nutshell, Aika is the type of person that is pleasant to talk with, and her sweet personality rubs off on everyone in a way that leaves an impression on them. Aside from her easily recognizable intellect, her soft-spoken personality makes it not hard to appreciate her. The embodiment of kindness in the group, Aika inspires everyone to be also kind. However, we highly recommended on not angering her, just don't.

As the leader in the making of the Lifestream platform, her intellect and communication skills is what brought the team to work together with the known noble philosophy in mind, "to be able to help others".

Armand Catubig Jr.

armand.catubigjr@cit.edu

It would be easy to describe Armand as a walking art form, and that is founded on his complex yet interesting personality. His brilliant mind is simply an art to behold, and his quirky personality (a better term might exist, and he's surely to know it well) is what makes him a fun person to be with. He always claims he's an introvert though, and we'd guessed he's probably right. If there was one thing about him to take an inspiration from, it is that he always gives it his best, even if others don't. This personality of his of always giving it his best, as well as his highly regarded taste on aesthetics, is what guided us in developing the beauty of the Lifestream platform.

Reich Alexei Estella

reichalexei.estella@cit.edu

Liking to call himself as a walking joke, Reich is the one who is writing this section. His unfiltered and vulgar mouth is what he uses to bring humor into any situation, even if it becomes too much or inappropriate. During brainstorming sessions, Reich always tries to make things simpler rather than making it unnecessarily complicated (Reich's words, you can always disagree). While being a constant source of ideas to the group, his open mind allows him to listen to what his fellow members are trying to say, and becomes frank with them if he doesn't get it. I don't know what he brings to the group, and I guess the other members don't know it as well, but at the very least, he did this part of the project.

Being a master of none, Reich is there to help his fellow members if they need it.

Rose Fe Rotersos

rosefe.rotersos@cit.edu

Simply an unbothered “kween”, Rose Fe is the most straightforward member of the team. She's the type to get into business directly. If she wants to ask you something, she'd be blunt and direct about it. But the interesting part is that her straightforwardness is more on the subtle side, so anyone who realizes this later on is simply astonished. One thing that has been always amazing about her is that she manages her time very well, she's able to handle heavy academic load one moment, and then in the next she'd be relaxing by watching movies or playing games. The balance between her handling her responsibilities and her relaxing is simply brilliant to even hear of it. Her straightforwardness and sense of responsibility is what she brings in the Lifeteam, and it shows.

Also, she can bring humor in the mix, or we take it from her.
