Adventure is Mrs. Roxas’ middle name. After finishing her Bachelors Degree in Psychology, Pauline started working in Japan as a Catholic Lay Missionary. She was able to learn Japanese  within six months and became a part of NHK (Japanese government-owned public broadcaster) educational program teaching Japanese to foreigners on TV. As a missionary, she was assigned to start up development projects in countries like Russia, Nepal, and East Timor. Her adventures and misadventures during her mission made her pursue her Master of Science in Development Management at American University in Washington, DC.

 

In 2006, Pauline moved to Los Angeles and continued working in non-profit organizations. She started volunteering at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels helping out their Outreach Center feeding the homeless, doing home visitations and raising funds. Pauline and her husband, Joseph, met and married at the Cathedral where they continue to be involved with marriage preparation as members of the CCC, Cathedral Couples in Christ. 

​

In 2021, Pauline joined the St. Brendan School community. Working in a school setting is a first for Pauline. She always believes that life is not about the destination but the journey. She is really excited and looking forward to getting to know the students and their parents and being part of the St. Brendan community.

 

Pauline loves food, wine, Disneyland and traveling!
