Clarice finished her undergraduate degree in Sociology at the University of the Philippines Diliman, emerging as one of the honor students in her batch. Having finished her course in October, she then became a Research Assistant to her thesis adviser and then shifted her employment path from academe into corporate setting when she worked for more than a year at TV5, the third largest broadcasting network in the country.
Her research skills may have helped her in dealing with respondents and clients for the organization. This is her first work in the development sector, and she is more than thrilled to execute her abilities as these were indebted to the classical sociologists and were then synthesized with the influence of her adviser whose works are centered to filipinizing the discipline.
