I’m Archie M. de Lara, born and raised in Nueva Ecija, Philippines and resides in Taguig City, Metro Manila .

I took up my Bachelors in Science Degree on  Food Technology in Central Luzon State University and immediately worked with  various food companies engaged into bakery and restaurants. After about five years in the food industry, I searched for a new venture.

In my attempts  of liberalizing myself financially by aiming for  high-income jobs, I shifted my career into transcription (as educated at MTC Academy). It was a quick decision  after engaging into various small entrepreneurial endeavors among which was  being a part-time Sales Counselor for PhilAm Plans. While working as Medical Transcriptionist (MT) in Advanced MT Data, I also gained experience in teaching  and at one time, was  employed at  PeopleSupport also as an MT.

Upon learning of the phenomenal surge of the popularity of the web, I started writing for Internet Sites and blogging in 2007.  This further presented an opportunity for me to explore  home based transcription which I actively started when I became an OFW in Saudi Arabia working as Medical Transcriptionist at King Fahd Armed Forces Hospital in Jeddah . I returned to the Philippines in October 2009 after my contract ended and is again on a prowl for MT job opportunities abroad to supplement my home-based MT income-generating activities.

Having to have been progressively working as an independent/home-based transcriptionist/writer, I’m fascinated on how to earn more through the Internet by blogging. Further exploration of the Internet led me to website development.

I’m currently working as an OFW again in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
