Aquiles Tan, Jr.
Aquiles Tan, Jr is a survivor. Born from a modest family and grew up in the Philippines, he became aware of life’s inequities at an early age. His outlook in life was heavily influenced by his early education in his hometown of Sum-ag and Catholic institutions during his high school and college days. His parents struggled but managed to send him to one of the best schools in the country.
He migrated to America in 1988 with a duffle bag and just enough money borrowed from relatives to survive in what was to become the biggest adventure of his life. Unfazed by the challenges he encountered, he never gave up and managed to survive, never losing faith and learning life’s valuable lessons along the way.
