I dream of an educational transformation that advances human knowledge, with my children among the first generation to inherit and elevate this legacy.
I dream of creating opportunities for those in underserved communities to pursue their own dreams and unlock their full potential.
I dream of a life that brings me happiness and well-being, savoring delicious foods from around the world, all while ensuring I uplift others and cause no harm.
Full Disclosure
Hello, my name is Rowena.
I come from a family of inventors.
The inventor of greentech ecobooster, Rommel is my brother and the spark of Community Pantry, Patreng, is my niece.
I studied mechanical engineering, worked in global consumer marketing & consulted for EU institutions. I experimented on entrepreneuring for this project with varied business models in London, Manila, Paris, Brussels, Hong Kong. I started coding in Fortran 77 and speak en/fr/it/tl/es.
I wrote all the content in this website, whitepaper and adventure guides. I also designed the system architecture of this money free network.
As system architect, I have root access. As part of the systems team, my time is valued the same as everyone else. I am known in the town I live in and those I work with but remain private from the rest of the internet. This is a right that I uphold for every network user.
I own no properties, no shares, no passive income, no insurance, no phone.
I do have a laptop, a Brompton folding bike & a trunkful of fabulous clothes.
I am a 7 time aunt and zero time mother. I love anime, I dance but I'm kind of a music snob*, I cannot lie.
I have personally road tested principles of the money free blueprint - courted trouble** that helped refine it. I am far from a role model (and more of a bad example if you judge) - but what I preach, I already practice.
Thank you for reading this far.
I welcome your cross examination & contribution in this adventure.

*I once was a vocalist to an all girl male bashing band called My Black Bra. Didn't see the light of day as 3 of my bandmates got pregnant. Hypocrites.
**Misadventures, crimes and misdemeanors are written in the adventure guides

A dedication
Today, May 9, 2025 marks the 86th birthday of my father. He was a brilliant inventor, a so-so entrepreneur and a progressive activist.
He shunned all things pretentious and can speak heart to heart with anyone - from the president of the country to the street prostitute (but he does have a flaw of discriminating against idiots).
We had intense arguments but we always have love and respect for each other. I know this might be a cheeky way to commemorate him, but as i cannot visit his grave (long story) i use this modern medium to remember a person who had a strong influence to my existence and the values i hold.
As energy is neither created nor destroyed but transforms from one form to another, my thoughts and love to the 21grams of passionate, pained energy unleashed unto the universe at 5 am on the 22nd of December 1988, when, my father, a serial inventor, who found this society much too harsh, took his own life.
It is my hope that this work will help current and future inventors, artists, artisans bring their ideas to life without fear of hunger or homelessness.
Positive vibes unto you Papa.
