He pursued his MBA from the Babson Graduate School of Business in MA, USA with a focus on entrepreneurship in 1995. Aside from online payments, he has extensive knowledge in computer programming, Internet Protocol (IP)-based technologies, and computer telephony. His current interests include Data Science, Machine Learning and Cloud
Computing. During his spare time, Dick enjoys traveling to unfamiliar places.

Dick is a founding director and the current Vice President of the Digital Commerce Association of the Philippines (DCOM), a trade association composed of various players that make up the Philippine e-commerce industry.
