Velvet Ladies Take Charge with the Velvet Visa Signature Card
A perfect example of the modern woman who takes charge of her life is Chinabank Brand Ambassador and face of the Velvet Visa Signature Card–Michelle Dee.
A woman who makes the most out of every moment, Michelle embodies Velvet Card’s vision of the multifaceted woman–a former Miss Universe-Philippines title holder, actress, producer, artist, model, Air Force Reservist, LGBTQ+ advocate, and mental health philanthropist for the Autism Society Philippines.
“I take immense pride in being able to juggle both my career and personal life,” Michelle beams. “It takes strength, determination, and commitment. My career path has not been an easy one, and I’ve encountered many trials along the way. These challenges have been a learning experience for me and have taught me to be more resilient, determined, and aware of my self-worth.” She adds, “Success is not just about personal achievements, it’s also about being able to inspire other women, especially the future generation. It’s fulfilling for me to know that at some point, I have been able to influence more women to triumph over the obstacles.”
On being the face of Velvet Visa Signature Card, she says, “I’m proud to be a part of this campaign that celebrates women who are in charge of their lives, their careers, and their financial freedom. Chinabank Velvet Visa Signature allows me to do more, whether it’s treating myself to pampering time, shopping with my mom, dining with friends, or traveling locally or internationally. I also enjoy Velvet Deals and Cash Back, allowing me to make the most of every moment.”
Just like brand ambassador Michelle, these three fierce women excel in their respective fields and embody the Velvet “woman in charge.”
Dr. Geraldine Zamora, a board-certified Rheumatologist, shares that she almost skipped college to become a ramp model and dancer–she ended up becoming all three.
A master of wearing many hats, she is also an author, researcher, professor, advocate for poor communities, and a mother. “[‘A Velvet Woman’] is a leader, which is an honor and responsibility. You are responsible for your and your team’s actions, so your role is to guide and empower them. You take accountability and own up to your decisions,” says Dr. Geraldine. When off-duty, she loves using her Velvet card to bond with her sixteen-year-old daughter over shopping and traveling.
Keylyn Trajano is an entrepreneur, host, model, influencer, and corporate professional who broke barriers as the first transwoman to compete in the female category of Century Tuna Superbods 2020 and left a mark in Philippine Pageantry as its first intersexual woman applicant.
“A Velvet Woman confidently takes up space,” says Keylyn. “She doesn’t need approval from society because she knows who she is, what she wants, and where she is going.” As a Velvet woman, she uses her Velvet Visa Signature card to access premier wellness, fitness, and mental health services that help her take care of her fitness holistically.
Last but not least is Caitlyn Viray. She may be young, but this Velvet Woman has earned respect in the world of sports as a pro volleyball player.
She is currently a Farm Fresh Foxie competing in the Premier Volleyball League. She has also begun a career as a content creator. The athlete shares, “As a woman in sports, being underestimated isn’t new to me. But the Velvet Woman doesn’t allow naysayers to put her down. She stays focused on her goals.” Life for this woman in charge is about keeping your eyes on the prize and using tools like her Velvet card to stay fighting fit—a key to ensuring longevity in her career in sports.
Women have come a long way, and Chinabank acknowledges this evolution. As Michelle Dee puts it, “Women possess the ability to shape the world by bringing a different perspective to their industries. I’ve seen the impact empowered women have. All these can create a ripple effect that benefits all of us.”
Through carefully curated perks and benefits, the Chinabank Velvet Visa Signature Card offers modern career women ways to manage their busy schedules and take charge of their lives with ease and elegance while chasing their dreams.
