Queenie Espino 

As the Operations Manager at We Are Ideas, I get to meet and collaborate with people from all over the world. I’ve been working remotely for over a decade now, supporting our clients from different parts of the globe . One of the best parts? I love connecting online, hearing different perspectives, and learning from the wisdom and empathy people bring to the table. It’s amazing how much growth happens when you’re open to discovering new ways of working and thinking.

Working online has also unlocked my creative side. Who knew that learning new skills, mastering different tools, and taking on fresh challenges could be so rewarding? (Okay, maybe everyone knew—but I was late to the party!)

I spent most of my life in the Philippines, and as they say, life begins at 40. In my mid-40s, I packed up my introverted self and set off to explore New Zealand—a place I had only ever dreamed of. Now, instead of just dreaming about beautiful places, I’m actually visiting them! It’s been quite the adventure, and I’m excited to see where this journey takes me next.
