"HOMTV helped to improve my production skills and creativity in putting together material. The experience gave me a keen eye for detail, skill for writing, knack for editing and enthusiasm for storytelling. Under the guidance of the station's talented staff and tremendous support from my peers, I gained the tools and necessary experience to become the professional that I am today."

"If I can impart anything from my own journey, it would be this: Chase your dreams and never give up on them. It sounds cliché, but you must have the belief that you will succeed and carry this conviction until your dream is realized. Do not veer off course, accept responsibility and become the driver of your destiny. It is too important to give up for anything."
