The Leader: Renson Yu

Renson Yu

High school basketball captain and Leadership awardee

Renson is the kind of guy who loves to joke around, but there is more to him than what meets the eye.

Back in high school, he was Makati Hope Christian School's basketball team captain. A well-rounded guy, not only did he receive awards from math competitions but also leadership awards for being part of their student council.

Here are some fun facts about him.

Fun fact #1: Renson is the only boy among his siblings. He has four sisters.
Fun fact #2: He talks in his sleep! Yes, he does it every single night. His sisters even tell him that they don't mind him anymore even if he starts screaming and shouting in his sleep.
