Identity is an annual festival to celebrate Asian Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Organized by Pacific Bridge Arts Foundation, the Los Angeles-based event was held on Saturday (Sunday, Philippine time).

Speaking as a guest speaker at Identity, Liza shared about the new chapter in her life, exploring exciting new opportunities, and her favorite Filipino food restaurant in the United States.

It feels very surreal,” Liza said. “I am actually very nervous right now because this is my first time speaking on a stage in America.

Liza said that it has been her dream to come to the United States and be able to do work there, adding that she’s happy, excited, and feels incredibly honored.

The actress made headlines last week when Ogie Diaz, her former talent manager, unveiled that she’s now managed by James Reid. James is part of the US-based Transparent Arts group championing Asian-American talents.

In an interview during Identity 2022, Liza confirmed Ogie Diaz’s previous statement pertaining to her goal of establishing a career overseas, aside from the Philippines.

Liza was also asked what she would advise to fellow Asian talents who aspire to make it big in the United States. The actress answered, “I would say to just go for it.”

My personal goal is to be able to bridge the gap between the Philippines and America and kind of give help to the younger generation, the little girls, who also dream of coming out here and making a career for themselves,” Liza said.
