Judy Ann Santos is busy.
Apart from numerous commitments as actress, businesswoman and restaurateur, she is also a hands-on mom and wife.
Hard as it is, Judy Ann has set priorities.
She told us, “Ako talaga much as possible I make sure tutok ako sa pamilya ko. Like, kahit may work, nagpapa-abiso talaga ako if I need to attend to something relating my children.”
These include preparing their meals.
“Madalas nail-late ako sa taping or sa shooting because of that,” she said. “Although hindi naman to the point na sakit na ako sa ulo or pabigat. Nagpapaalam naman ako. Pero kung talagang hindi pwede, gabi pa lang inaasikaso ko nay an so that pagpasok nila sa school, handa na ang mga baon nila even that of Ryan (Agoncillo, her husband).”
She has a good reason for it.
“Ayoko kasi pagdating ng panahon pagsisihan ko,” she said. “Ito kasi yung mga moments na hindi mo na talaga mababalikan. And gusto ko nandu’n ako, yung presence ko. At saka it makes me happy doing it e. Present ka sa mga anak mo, sa asawa mo, bilang tao, bilang nanay, it’s fulfilling.”
Her dedication as mom and wife didn’t go unnoticed with Alaska Milk tapping her as ambassador.
According to Star Estacio, the company’s marketing director, “Alaska Milk’s purpose has always been to nourish Filipino dreams, one we can truly say we’ve continuously been pursuing for years. We feel that it is but natural to take a more proactive approach to this mission by partnering with an individual who, time and again, uses the full extent of her capabilities and influence for the same purpose.”
“Judy Ann Santos is not just an accomplished actress,” she added. “She is a mom and a purpose-driven influencer who sees food as a tool to help better the lives of those around her. She is—without a doubt—the best celebrity out there right now to represent our brand and what we stand for.”
A brand founded on the premise of providing families with access to delicious and affordable dairy products, Alaska Milk recently unveiled a new campaign that shares ways with moms on how they can easily add nourishment to kids’ favorite meals while making them extra appetizing.
