Care is in the details
A missed temperature log or an unchecked supplier certificate can matter. I like to get the small things right so the big things take care of themselves.
About
The story so far
A food technologist and food safety consultant who believes safe food is a form of care.
Hello there
I’m Mary Joice
I have always been curious about what happens to food before it reaches us: who checks it, how it is kept safe, and what it takes to get it right every single time.
That curiosity led me to a Bachelor of Science in Food Technology at Cavite State University in Indang, and straight into quality assurance in 2015. I started in the laboratory, running physico-chemical and microbiological tests on raw materials and finished goods, and I have been learning ever since.
Over eleven years I have grown from a QA officer into supervisory and leadership roles: a Lead Internal Auditor and Document Control Custodian, a member of a HACCP team, the person handling a company’s FDA product registrations, and most recently the head of a Quality Management Section in government.
In 2026 I became a licensed Professional Food Technologist through the Professional Regulation Commission, and earned my Career Service Professional eligibility from the Civil Service Commission, two milestones I am quietly very proud of.
What guides my work
A few things I believe
Simple beats complicated
The best food safety system is the one people actually follow. I aim for clear forms, plain-language procedures and training that sticks.
Grow together
I have been a resource speaker for many in-house trainings. Helping a team understand the why behind the rules is some of the most rewarding work I do.
Beyond the job title
Where I feel most at home
I am just as comfortable in a hairnet on the production floor as I am across a table talking through a registration checklist. I have worked with manufacturers, traders and a national government bureau, and each one taught me something different about how food really moves from source to shelf.
I speak Filipino and English, and I am fluent in Microsoft Office and Google Workspace, the everyday tools that keep documentation tidy and teams in sync.
Based in Dasmariñas, Cavite, I work with food businesses across the Philippines that want to grow safely, strengthen their processes, and do things properly. I’m open to projects and collaborations nationwide and internationally.
Let’s talk
If any of this sounds like a fit, I’d love to hear from you.
Whether it is a registration you have been putting off, a HACCP plan that needs a fresh look, or a team that could use a friendly refresher, I am always happy to hear what you are working on. No pressure, just a conversation.
