    • Mia Custodio, Editor-in-chief

      Mia's first Oops moment at Candy: mispronouncing her future boss's name at her job interview. Her first Me, Only Better triumph? Landing the Editorial Assistant position despite the Oops moment (yay!). These days, she's happy and busy being Candy's resident ate-whether it entails trying out new products with Jen, meeting with Mimi, cooking up spreads with Angel and Marla, or feeding Ray's fighting fish, Fishda. She loves dessert and chips (best eaten in that order), young adult novels (best read while eating chips), dogs (great for hugging), and Candy ideas born in the dead of night, when she's trying her darndest to fall asleep.

    • Steph Yapnayon, Art Director

      Steph first fell in love with graphic design when she was in high school. She took it upon herself to learn Photoshop and has never looked back since! Steph makes it a point to make all the Candy pages creative, dynamic, and beautiful. When she's not busy doing layouts, reading chick lit and watching chick flicks are her favorite pastimes. :)

    • Mimi Tiu, Managing Editor

      Call it fate, but before interning for Candy, Mimi never imagined she’d be working for a publication, let alone the Philippines’ best teen mag! Graduating from intern to contributing writer to editorial assistant to lifestyle editor to managing editor (finally!), this team player finds pleasure in keeping things organized, scrutinizing articles, taking impromptu product photos, meeting deadlines, and cracking the whip (but only if necessary!).

    • Jennie Llamas-Garcia, Beauty Editor

      Jennie's love affair with all things beauteous started after sporting a ridiculous, Snow White-inspired, black bob, one term in her early college days. That unfortunate period in her life has inspired her to educate herself in the language of beauty and never be fooled again into doing something too drastic with her physical appearance. Being in charge of Candy's beauty pages gives her the opportunity to help young girls avoid the beauty follies she so unfortunately experienced when she was younger.

    • Margaux Romero, Fashion Assistant

      You will see Margaux at any mall, bazaar, tiangge, designer's house, etc. Her job is to shop.

    • Angel Constantino, Assistant Features Editor

      As Candy’s assistant features editor, Angel writes and edits articles, interviews people with interesting stories, and helps choose the best features that go into the mag. Aside from being a true-blue Candy girl, Angel is a traveler and lover of adventure! She explores the great outdoors through her mountain-climbing exploits and trips around the country.

    • Marla Miniano, Assistant Lifestyle Editor

      Marla has been a Candy girl since high school. She likes discovering new music, interviewing people who are either really talented or really funny (or both), and meeting Candy cuties. :P

    • Denise Congco, Associate Publisher

      Dens makes sure that Candy, as a brand, stays number one! She creates your fun and exciting Candy in-magazine promo, trade, PR, and event concepts. The business side of the mag is basically Dens’ turf.

    • Macy Alcaraz, Web and Mobile Producer I

      Macy is sugar, spice, and all things nice - much like the website she’s tasked to take care of. She’s been online since 1997 and is more than happy to be churning out happy thoughts for all the Candy girls surfing the WWW.

    • Roch Vergara, Web and Mobile Producer I

      It's been Roch's dream to work for a publishing company. Who would have thought that dream would come true? Just like Macy, she's also been exposed to the web world ever since she was in high school. They work hand in hand to make your online hangout fabulous. She also makes it a point to make Candy TV's videos worth watching.
