Freddie took up business courses but is a graduate of Criminology with units in Business Management at the UP College Baguio. He was born and raised in Manila but has made Baguio City his permanent residence. He traces his roots at Sta. Barbara, Pangasinan (mother's side) and Negros Oriental (father's side). In  1997 Freddie put up Farco Trimedia Ventures (then, a sole proprietorship) and initially ventured into Radio and Cable TV pre and post production services (audio-video); to date  he is the General Manager of FTV Inc. and  the founding publisher of The Junction Newspaper (a local news paper based in Baguio City, circulating within Baguio, Benguet Province). Freddie avers that the big difference with The Junction newspaper is that it is a non-political paper, hence, it has no strings attached, nor any political debts to  any person or political group. Other than this, The Junction Newspaper has taken the self appointed role of  fizcaliser to various  local and national government offices and the media industry  in general. He is also a columnist of the said paper, and a member of the National Press Club (NPC) & Philippine Press Institute (PPI).

A pure Ilocana who hails from Bacarra, Ilocos Norte, Philippines, she has made Baguio her permanent home. She is a teacher (a graduate of Ilocos Norte Normal School, now DMMMSU- Laoag City), but has stopped teaching, and a writer, being a member of the GUMIL and a contributor to The Junction Newspaper.  She is at present the President of Young Women’s Christian Association (YWCA) Baguio-Benguet Chapter.

A fighter, Connie was once the President of the Sons and Daughters Baguio City Chapter (an organization of the heirs of World War II veterans), where she had been fighting for the rights of our WW II nation’s heroes, and their heirs. Through her initiative, a building, and a cooperative for the group was put up. A school for the members’ small children is now also operational.

A workaholic, Connie is single by choice. Despite her very hectic schedule brought about by her numerous socio-civic affiliations, Connie is all over – one day she is in Baguio, the next day she is  somewhere else. She is one of those who has omitted the word “rest” in her vocabulary.
