Eugene is a Filipino from Vancouver, Washington, and a proud graduate of Washington State University.
Entering college, Eugene always knew he wanted a career working in the media. He found a passion for news after discovering how much creative freedom reporters had with their stories. During his college years, he produced and edited for a number of student-produced shows and spent a summer working with KXTG, a radio station that covered the Portland Trail Blazers, in Portland, Oregon.
Eugene is excited to be in the Yakima/Tri-Cities region, and is ready to face the challenges needed for him to becoe best he can be. When he isn't running around town reporting, Eugene enjoys competing in full-court basketball games, playing video games, and spending time with his family, eating home-made islander dishes.
