The woman who now commands a massive online platform—a self-proclaimed “taboo breaker” and a beacon of hope for millions in the Philippines—was once simply a hungry child. THE WEIGHT OF SILENCE AND STRUGGLE Cindy’s childhood in the Philippines was characterized by a deep and enduring scarcity. Her early life was defined by what she calls a lisod kaayo nga kinabuhi—a very difficult life. With a mother working as a housekeeper and a father laboring in construction, her family of eleven—nine siblings and two parents—struggled daily to survive. It was a life where eating even one meal a day was a luxury, a constant, gnawing concern that dictated every decision. The stark reality of their situation forced Cindy into labor far too young. By the age of eight, she would sometimes…

San Francisco Opera House December 5-28, 2025 On Christmas Eve 1944, San Francisco Ballet made history with the American premiere of Nutcracker, launching a national holiday tradition that continues to enchant audiences today. The Nutcracker was first performed in 1892 in St. Petersburg, with the iconic score by Tchaikovsky, based on Hoffmann’s fairy tale.

She often confided that she faced bullying for not speaking English as well as her classmates, a discouragement that continued into her teenage years when she first pursued modeling. “A group of girls ganged up on me for wanting to start a modeling career. They called me ugly on the photos I posted on social media. I wanted to give up on my dreams, but the strong fire to pursue the arts burned inside and compelled me to rise above these challenges.” Despite the discouragement, Jennifer’s drive led her to represent California in the first-ever Nuestra Belleza USA competition, building a foundation of…
