Hey there, I'm Erika Aquino—an advocate for creating opportunities and championing impactful ventures. With roots in the Philippines and a middle-class upbringing, my entrepreneurial journey began early, shaped by experiences in both corporate and startup environments.

​

My knack for spotting opportunities and seizing them has led to a series of fortunate events in my journey. I firmly believe in sharing these opportunities, generously leveraging my network and resources to make a positive impact wherever I can.

​

Today, I'm involved in diverse ventures, from co-owning an award-winning craft beer company to facilitating transformative travel experiences for first-generation college students. As an angel investor, I focus on driving change in wellness, sustainability, education, agriculture, and the future of workspaces, all while amplifying underrepresented voices.

​

Throughout my journey, I've been fortunate to be part of esteemed organizations such as Shell, Sunlife Asset Management, Mandarin Oriental Manila, City of Dreams, Infinit-o, Lenddo, and Mapúa Malayan Digital College, among others. These experiences, combined with my involvement in startups and consultancies, have shaped my entrepreneurial approach.

​

Beyond my professional pursuits, you'll find me exploring the world, diving into exotic locales, or delving into captivating books. If you share my passion for education, travel, tech, or even craft beer, let's connect.

 

Together, let's make a difference, one opportunity at a time.
