Janelle Torres

Research Manager - South East Asia

My career journey started in writing and shifted to education. Being an educator with specialization in early childhood education since 2009, my career led me to varied teaching opportunities in the Philippines and in Singapore. Prior to joining ISC Research, I was an executive principal for a Chinese childcare in the Philippines, where I currently live.

I have a bachelor’s degree in Development Communication and an MA in Early Childhood Education.

When not busy with work, I enjoy going on beach trips with my family and learning how to surf. I also like training in Muay Thai, which I usually make time for during my weekends.
