Early life and education

He attended the Augustinian-administered La Consolacion College – Daet, graduating first honors from grade school in 1981, and as high school valedictorian in 1985. He obtained his licenciate in philosophy at the Philippine Dominican Center for International Studies in 1991 and a licenciate in theology at the University of Santo Tomas in 1994.[1] He joined the Dominicans in 1985 and professed his vows in 1989.[2] His brother, Ronald Anthony, is also a priest who is currently the Vicar General of the Diocese of Daet.
