Coleen Garcia Biography

I've been hearing a lot about the beautiful newbie Coleen Garcia. Her name even came up on top on Yahoo.ph. And so, I have decided to make a research about her.

Coleen Ortega Garcia, 18 years old this year, was born on September 24, 1992 in Mandaluyong City, Philippines. She currently resides in ParaƱaque City and is of Spanish and Filipino descent.

Coleen was asked to join showbiz right after being discovered from her recent commercials. Her career as a commercial model started when she was around 2 years of age, debuting with her mother in a commercial for Johnsons & Johnsons. Ever since then, she has been involved in doing commercials, usually with her mother (in the past). More recent ones include that of SkinWhite, where she starred alongside Mr.John Lloyd Cruz, along with that of Lewis & Pearl Cologne, where she starred as "Angel" and had her first appearance onscreen with current love team partner Enrique Gil. Her latest break in her commercial modeling career is that of the Nestea commercial series, where she stars as "Matina" alongside Neil Coleta.

Aside from being a commercial model, Coleen also has experiences in being a model/endorser. She first started endorsing and ramp-modeling for Just G, the TEENS line for Gingersnaps, as their image model, when she was about nine years of age. Her contract with Gingersnaps went on for two years. Currently, Coleen is signed with BNY as the image model for their TEENS line for casual apparel. Apart from being involved in show business, Coleen is also a student; currently a college freshman who had once been awarded as the top scholar of Southville International School and Colleges' TOPS academic scholarship program, and former editor-in-chief of her high school's school paper, entitled "The Wire", as well as member of her school's Student Council and outreach organization. She is also a proud Christian who attends worship services in CCF (Christ Commission Fellowship).
