Our very own Joanne Pauline Tan (Batch 2012) rises once again — capturing Gold ? at the 2026 National Trials of the Jiu Jitsu Federation of the Philippines.

For two years, Joanne has stepped onto the mats carrying not just skill, but heart.

Behind every medal is a story of quiet battles, unseen sacrifices, and the resilience to keep going even when the journey felt heavy. This victory was more than a win — it was proof that strength is built in the moments no one sees.

From leading as a former GCC Volleyball Captain to standing strong as a champion in Jiu Jitsu, Joanne continues to inspire the next generation of GCC athletes — showing that true leaders never stop growing, never stop fighting, and never stop believing.

Your GCC family celebrates you. Onward and upward!
