OUR MISSION

"Bridging Filipino Excellence with Global Opportunities"

To empower Filipino professionals with global career opportunities while providing businesses access to exceptional talent, creating lasting partnerships that drive success across borders.

OUR STORY

We envision a world where geographic boundaries no longer limit professional growth. Brand U Connect emerged from a simple yet powerful idea: connecting exceptional Filipino talent with visionary global companies.

Our journey began with understanding two crucial needs:

  • Global businesses seeking dedicated, skilled professionals.
  • Filipino talent ready to showcase their expertise worldwide.

Born from the success of Brand U Academy, Brand U Connect bridges the gap between exceptional Filipino talent and global opportunities. Our platform emerged from a vision to create meaningful connections that transform careers and businesses alike.
Founded on the principle that talent knows no boundaries, we’ve built more than a job board – we’ve created a community where professional excellence meets purpose-driven opportunities

OUR TEAM

Joey Benz Fortuna

I’m a dedicated educator by profession with a strong background in communication. Alongside teaching, I have experience working as an information officer, specializing in delivering clear and effective messaging. I’m also an expert in social media management and customer service support, helping brands connect with their audiences and provide top-notch experiences.
Outside of work, you’ll often find me exploring different coffee shops or perfecting my own coffee-making skills. I believe every cup tells a story, and I’m always on the lookout for the next great brew!

Elmer Colita

Hey there! I’m Elmer Colita, a Virtual Event Producer who’s all about making online events smooth, stress-free, and engaging. Whether it’s Zoom, StreamYard, or webinars, I help businesses, coaches, and professionals run events without the tech headaches—so they can focus on what they do best!
I’m also a moderator at Brand U Connect, where I help match clients with the right virtual professionals to support their business growth. With my experience in freelancing and virtual production, I know how important it is to have the right people behind the scenes. That’s why I’m here—to make sure your events (and your business) run seamlessly!

Karla Montejo

Kumusta! I’m Karla, a writer at heart and a book lover by nature. My journey into the world of management and administration began as a Virtual Assistant, where I discovered my love for organizing, planning, and making things happen.
As an introvert by nature, I didn’t expect to enjoy connecting with people—but my work has taught me the value of conversation and how much you can learn from others. Talking to people from different backgrounds has helped me grow, both personally and professionally, and opened my mind to new perspectives.
Learning and connecting with people has shaped my journey, and I’m excited for what’s next!
