About the Author/CEO

Hi! My name is Sobina, although my circle of friends usually call me Bina in short. I am 100% #proudlypinoy albeit as you could probably see with the name that I am carrying right now that yes I am a Chinese. Even in my early age, I already experienced the hardships that one might experience if he/she chose “the road less taken.” In a developing country like the Philippines (This is where I currently reside), space programs are not yet prevalent, and those who chose to pursue astronomy will usually ran off as a call center agent – far from what they’ve pursue in college. To be honest with you, this scares me a lot – mainly because my childhood dream is to be an astronaut and up to this day, the flame that has ignited my passion to be an astronaut has long not yet been extinguished. This improbable situation inspired me to promote astronomy to everyone – not only to the Philippines but to the entire nation. I know that I have but yet to venture a long road ahead of me since yes I know I’m just 13 years old and what could I possibly do but I believe that your age will never be an indicator of your ability and it will be never measure your passion for something. Everyone could be the change they want their society to be, we just have to dream big, act big, and most of all, to have the fuel to drive our passion to reach out to everyone. So, with this said, I really hoped that one day, astronomy will be taught by all nations and astronomy will not be regarded as insubstantial. Thank you and to the stars!

I'm with my best friend Geanine Balolong (right)! She has been my greatest supporter throughout my entire journey to the stars!
