"My own experience in the European Union as a Stipendium Hungaricum scholar in Hungary affirms this truth. I owe my newfound confidence and strengthened leadership and adaptability to my rigorous academic training and cross-cultural immersion at the Corvinus University of Budapest, where I completed my MSc in Public Policy and Management.
Excellence, I realized, is not about perfection but about constant growth, openness, and responsibility toward others. Today, I apply these lessons as a public servant in the Philippines, working to advance human rights and good governance. My EU journey continues to inspire me to lead with purpose, proving that when empowered, the youth are indeed catalysts of excellence."
