About this episode

Cathy Lobendino is a 26 years old girl born and raised in the Philippines.

She came to Dubai to work in an auditing firm as an accountant and lives in Downtown Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

As a kid, she always had a passion for singing, pageants and modeling.

She likes to be around people, women especially because she feels like she always learns something from them, either about beauty or life itself.

Cathy had joined pageants and singing contests back in the Philippines, and she had her fair share of defeats and victories. Which all she is grateful for.

And now in Dubai, she has been doing modeling, hosting and fashion. Cathy had great opportunities to work with brands and host some big event alongside having a full time work.
