While working at Google, Marv established Google Philippines Pride, increasing visibility both internally and externally, leading to participation in Manila’s biggest Pride March. Marv also leveraged Google’s privilege to build an external community called Pride@Tech, partnering with tech companies in the Philippines to improve accessibility and safe spaces in the country. This led to the growth of Pride@Google APAC with the introduction of chapters in key locations such as Taiwan, Thailand, and Korea where there were no chapters previously existing, and resulted in creating a Google APAC Pride event. Outside of work Marv has taken part in a Facebook Live Webinar with Mind Nation in 2020 on Being Queer in the Workplace and its impact on mental health and Pride Digital Summit for LGBT+-owned Small businesses in the Philippines, and was a panelist at Phil Financial Inter-Industry Pride on Using Technology to improve Digital Diversity.
