About albie

Many years ago, Albie was born in the middle of bustling Manila City, Philippines. After spending 7 of his early years playing with crappy japanese toys and running amuck like any little kid would do, the family made the decision to move to the 'big smoke' of Melbourne.

It was the move to Melbourne, which gave him his yearning for girls, partying, computers, and cars. The catalyst was a James Bond Movie Marathon, which gave him the skill to speak like the great man himself, Sean Connery.

He studied primary school skills at Moreland Primary School before once again being shipped off to high school in the middle of the city.

When he finished High school, the radio announcer bug bit him and it was at this point where he started his journey into radio and joined Community Radio station 'SYN FM'. He co-hosted a show during the drive time session and was finally kicked out because he wasn't 'funny enough' for the show. Subsequently, Austereo employeed him, and had a short stint working on Triple M's Freq Show as a Phone Monkey. He was then replaced in 2005 by an answering machine.

Telstra decided to finally employ his unemployed ass and eventually some big BigPond people had a chat and told each other 'hey he used to work in some media field plus he's good with talking with random people so we'll make him a Customer Relations Manager at BigPond Movies'... so thats where I'm currently at (don't ask me for free DVDs!!!)

The last few years of my life have been truly blessed. I've traveled all around the world, partied countless hours and have met so many interesting people along the way.

I'm also the guy who also lugs around a big ass camera!
