Earl Laurence S. Bajalla

I am an Applied Economics graduate majoring in Development Economics with experience in research assistance, field data collection, respondent interviews, research consulting, stakeholder coordination, and event management. I have supported development-related public forums, education campaigns, research writing, and report preparation for certification.

I also work as a freelance research consultant, assisting clients with research methodology, design, analytical approaches, academic writing structure, and research output refinement. My academic background has strengthened my skills in data interpretation, basic econometric analysis, policy evaluation, financial literacy, budgeting, and data-driven problem-solving.

Beyond research, I have strong experience in communication, external relations, and public engagement. I have managed partnerships, sponsors, client relations, and stakeholder inquiries through leadership roles in student and community organizations. As a freelance host, I have handled formal and informal events across the Philippines, developing strong public speaking, crowd management, and professional communication skills.

I am proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint for documentation, reporting, data management, and presentations. I am detail-oriented, adaptable, resilient, and capable of delivering quality outputs under pressure. I am interested in opportunities related to research, development work, policy, project support, communications, partnerships, and administrative assistance.
