Bea Patrice Villa • Writer • Social Media Manager

Bea Patrice Villa, 19 cutest of all the writers and contributors behind Nota Bene

Carlo Saluya • Writer • Videographer 

Cineaste at heart, Carlo has been into a lot of film productions, which he sees himself doing in the future aside from being a writer. He's still the sad boy, and will always be — a boy who still cries over films and the Sunday's melancholic feels.
