Just a little about Syd
If you're looking for inspiration, passion for life and a little sunshine in your day, Syd is your girl, she's indomitable! For whatever reason she seems to have this uncanny ability to find the good, achieve the "impossible', she can touch and inspire a soul instantly!
Does this love for life come from her "bleak" start? From a cardboard on the side of the road in the middle of the Philippines, surrounded by an impoverished country, lived Syd's birth mom. Adoption was the way out for her mother to give Syd a better life. Remaining in Manila would have opened the doors to prostitution and trafficking for Syd. Adoption was her chance! Now, as part of her daily plan she looks for and takes opportunity as her way to show gratitude back to her birth mom and parents for the life she lives today.
Going after the "impossible" is the method in which Syd lives her life to it's fullest. Her dad once told her "go after the impossible! Most people believe the "impossible" is impossible, therefore there aren't as many attempting to accomplish those goals." Syd took that to heart.
Growing up she was faced with severe dyslexia, and only began reading at the age of 24. She saw that hiccup as a blessing. It encouraged her to accomplish things in life by using the talents she owned. She trained for the Olympics in both soccer and gymnastics which developed a very driven and focused personality. After tearing the ligaments in her ankle her mom moved her into dance, something she really had no interest in. She thought dance was too 'girly'. Of course, she figured out how to make dance become that "impossible" goal. Syd moved out to LA at the age of 17 to dance for tours, films, TV, A - List artists and projects (Beyonce', Herb Alpert, Paula Abdul, Muhammad Ali) to name a few. Those projects and jobs created opportunity for her to transition into becoming an LA choreographer for A - list artists, along with leading Networks and Labels. As her choreography career grew she found herself ready to start a family. The decision had finally come to build one of her floor plans she had drawn up years prior as a teenage. The journey began, updating floor plans, building into a mountain, and designing the flow of her Mountain-Tuscan home was a dream come true. Syd included a rehearsal studio and an apartment down in the basement. She began flying her artists and their dancers in from LA . They would rehears in the studio and stay in the basement apartment during off rehearsal times. This move was the step that allowed Syd to be a hands on mom, a woman who understood the importance of being present for her young girls.
​
Her Interior Design career began, unknowingly, due to the producers flying in to see the tours. That was the moment that Syd's Interior Design career bloomed. After witnessing her ability to develop floor plans, implement her interior design into projects, her knowledge of construction; the producers began hiring Syd to design their homes globally.
​
After divorcing the girls dad in 2013, a 15 year marriage came to an end. Syd knew she would need to reinvent herself. As a single mother, no really child support or alimony she would need to dig deep. 2021 Syd landed a cohosting position with a NY radio station, 'Dare to BE Better With Ray and Syd' which increased her followers. Leaning on her past experiences and understanding where her talents lie, Syd reached out to Chelsea to pitch 'Find Me Here'. Having a TV Hosting experience in her back pocket Syd felt strongly that she fit the Host position for the Find Me Here project. She didn't hesitate to pitch herself for the position. Creating opportunity for herself is one of Syd's strengths. Years prior she had created a TV show, BeyondDANCE, that was shopped to SONY, MTV, TLC, HBO, FX, Oprah and Life Time where she was cast as the Host -Choreographer, she took a position as an Executive Producer., as well. This project is where she met Emmy Nominated-Producer/Director Chelsea Low.
Syd now owns a construction company which she has attached her Flooring Co and Interior Design Boutique. Prior, Public Speaking was apart of her arsenal that allowed her to continually share her process of living a happier more inspired life with others. Her journey has been strengthened by a father who valued his role in her life, along with a mom who has taught her how to truly nurture her children, a birth mother who gave her the opportunity to live a healthy, happy and safe life, along with the blessing of two amazing girls who have changed her life for the better.
