Bran Reluao is a young mover and shaker. At 25 years old, this digital strategist runs a news and features website and could be considered the youngest media company owner in the Philippines.
His website, RepublicAsia Media, seeks to set itself apart from the pack by giving a voice to the thoughts and concerns of the younger generation and serving as a platform to discuss issues that affect them.
It’s not an easy task. He has to deal with a crowded digital landscape, swift advances in technology, and a fast-moving news cycle that requires him to process a large amount of information in such a short time.
Shine with LVNA by Drake Dustin
Bran is a fan of LVNA's pieces, and its diamond jewelry resonates with him.
His OOTDs regularly include a diamond necklace and a diamond tennis bracelet from this jewelry brand.
These pieces could be a symbol of grace under pressure, of overcoming adversity, and thriving under challenging circumstances.
Smart investment
These LVNA pieces are investments; they are not like fast fashion pieces that go out of style in a few months.
They are timeless and gain value over time. This is why Reluao prefers to spend on precious jewelry at a time, rather than going for gimmicky and risky ventures.
With LVNA, he knows that he is getting much value for his hard-earned money.
Breaking ground
Like LVNA, Bran likes to break new ground. As a young player in the media landscape, he is harnessing the power of social media to tell the different stories that the younger generation and those in the underground have to offer and which have not been given much attention in the traditional media.
In the same way, LVNA's Drake Dustin Ibay veered away from the typical practice of selling diamond pieces at a very high markup.
By making his quality pieces more accessible, he has made a wide range of people, both young and old, proud owners of diamonds that will last a lifetime.
It is in this way that both Bran and LVNA are carving their own paths.
