Name: Chantal Gail B. Umpad
Birthdate: 27th of March 1997
Birth Place: Perpertual Succor Hospital, Cebu City
About Me:
My mother is Concepcion B. Umpad. I grew up with my grandparents. My mom worked and had her full bloomed career abroad; she’s still there up to present. My grandparents and I lived in a simple house in Barangay Abijao, Villaba Leyte. I spent my preschool and elementary level in ACE Learning Center located at a town near our barangay called Palompon. Each and every day my grandmother would send me to school. When I was in highschool, my grandparents placed me in a dormitory. There I learned how to be dependent. A lesson that helped me survive now in Velez College.
I’ve always dreamt of becoming a pilot. But I know I can’t pass because I have eye defect. My mother once dreamt of becoming a doctor but she wasn’t able to accomplish it due to financial problems. Now that my mother has sufficient resources, I am determined to reach a dream she once had. At first, I had a hard time, but I’ve learned to love it, especially with my friends that turned family.

About Me:
My mother is a businesswoman and my father is a civil engineer. I have 4 siblings that I also considered as my best friends.

All I want is to finish college and continue my dream on becoming a doctor. I’m so lucky to have a family that supports me in everything. They’re my strength and inspiration to strive harder on reaching my goals.
