MANILA, Philippines — Model Deniece Cornejo is living the best days of her life performing many roles in different agencies.
In an exclusive interview with Philstar.com, Deniece said she had transitioned her life with so many blessings, learnings and opportunities.
“I’m indeed very grateful to Lord, Jesus, dahil nagbunga ang lahat ng aking pagtulong at paghihirap sa government at sa non-government sectors. Sa loob ng nine years, talagang na-strengthen ang aking mga adbokasiya, visions at projects at dahil dito maraming taga subaybay at sumuporta. Naramdaman daw nila ang pagiging passionate at integridad ko sa bawat plataporma,” she said.
“I was surprised, one day, the barangay affairs of DILG (Department of Interior and Local Government) called me if I can be the ambassadress and task force partner of the program that will help the 42,000 barangays nationwide. So far marami akong natutunan at natuklasan sa mga barangay natin, ngayong taon ay nasisimulan ko na ipakita ang First Mobile Health Clinic with free labratory tests,” she added.
Deniece said that she’s also a media presenter at Bagong Baranggay ng Mamayan in Action in DWIZ television at radio and was appointed as the first ever Miss Manila Fame of Center for International Trade Expositions and Missions (CITEM), a marketing partner of Department of Trade and Industry.
“My mission is to showcase the excellence and uniqueness of our local products, captivate investors, and beckon exporters towards the bound opportunities that await in vibrant market. Together we will elevate our innovation, onto the global stage.”
She was also recently recognized by the American Excellence Awards as the International Ambassador for Filipina culture.
“Nasaksihan nila ang aking pagiging tapat at determinasyon sa pagtulong at pagsuporta sa ating brand identity. Lalo na't nakatuon tayo sa pagpapalakas ng ating kultura. Sa loob ng nakaraang 40 taon, naging bahagi ako sa pagbabalik ng Manila Fame mula sa 3 years paghinto na dulot ng pandemya. Ang ating mga produkto ay talagang nakapakahusay at magaganda tulad ng arts, fashion, furnitures, at marami pang iba. Nagkaroon din ako ng business dialogues kasama ang ilang mga minisiters mula sa iba't ibang bansa tulad ng Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, Pakistan, Europe at Sweden.”
