Beyond the Bar
Born and raised in the mountain province of Bukidnon, Chin is most at peace with a strong cup of coffee, her two dogs by her side, and zero signal bars.
A weekend regular on muddy farm trails, she swaps legal briefs for long walks and lets her inbox breathe (briefly).
A former church organist with a soft spot for K-dramas and courtroom dramas alike—proof that calm composure and plot twists can coexist.
Before law, she trained in the Big 4 trenches—where she perfected her eye for detail, her spreadsheet skills, and her ability to thrive under deadline pressure.
A self-proclaimed structure enthusiast (read: perfectionist in heels), Chin brings the same energy to contracts and checklists as she does to her Netflix queue—everything in its perfect place.
