Hi, I’m Marga!
I am a Filipino actor, singer, and host based in Metro Manila, Philippines, and my pronouns are she/her. I started singing and performing when I was a kid, with my passion for storytelling continuing to grow since then.
Though I graduated magna cum laude from UP Diliman with a Business Administration degree, I have several years of musical theatre training under my belt, with experience in both traditional and digital theatre. Currently, I perform with Clowning Around Manila, and I am a member of TAG Philippines. As the art form continues to shift, I’m excited to contribute my own voice, and to connect with fellow artists and audiences around the world.
Outside of performing, I love running, Ted Lasso, and Formula 1, and coffee and The Office memes are sure-fire ways to make me smile!
