About

Kevin teaches startup finance to Filipino founders through comprehensive presentation decks covering pricing strategy, entrepreneurial accounting, financial statements, cash flow management, fundraising, valuation methods, equity division, dilution mechanics, Philippine compliance (SEC/DTI/BIR), and financial modeling.

Kevin's startup finance teachings come from direct, hands-on experience raising and managing funds. For IOL Inc., he secured a DOST-PCIEERD Startup Grant (2021) and a DOST-TAPI TECHNiCOM Grant (2023), and raised angel investment after completing the IdeaSpace Foundation Incubation Program (Cohort 7). He also served as Finance Manager of Vivita Philippines Corp. (2020–2024), where he managed investment funds from Mistletoe Ventures (investor of Vivita International), developed financial sustainability plans for the organization's transition to a non-profit, and helped raise funds for both Vivita Philippines and IOL Inc. as part of the EU-Philippines Green Economy Partnership grant program. His startup finance experience spans pre-seed fundraising, grant administration, angel investor relations, and international donor funding.

Beyond fundraising, Kevin has been invited as a resource speaker by USTP CDO b.i.t.e.s. (Cohort 9 Incubation Program), CHED Region I (BANKS Summit, 2024–2025), and NATCCO (National Confederation of Cooperatives). He serves as Finance Mentor at the New Energy Nexus Startup Acceleration Program, is a certified mentor under PCE – Go Negosyo, a Philippine Startup Challenge Finalist, and an ARISE Plus Ye! Boost graduate. He also serves as a Visiting Lecturer at Saint Louis University's graduate school.
