What are the other talents of Mikee Quintos?
We all see Mikee Quintos showcase her acting skills weeknights as the lost diwata, Lira, in Encantadia. But aside from her thespian talents and cherubic visage, Mikee has so much more to offer.
When she's not onscreen, Mikee is kept busy by her academics. The young Kapuso actress is currently taking up architecture in University of Santo Tomas.
According to Mikee, she chose to study architecture because "We're a family of doctors and lawyers 'eh, I can't see myself being a lawyer, the same thing with medicine. I'd rather study math and I'm artsy din. May artistry pa din pero you're a professional."
Aside from brains, she can also command the stage with her singing.
"I realized na I love music when I was seven years old, nag-karaoke lang [ako] tapos biglang pinansin ng lola ko na 'Marunong kang kumanta 'ah?' Sa lola ko namana 'yon, siya na 'yung [nagtuturo sa'kin] ever since ng position on how to sing and breathing," she shared.
And of course, Mikee also knows how to play not one, not two, but three musical instruments, "Nag-study din ako mag-guitar when I was 10 tapos marunong din ako mag ukulele and piano."
With a bit more experience, there's no doubt that Mikee can develop to be a triple-threat!
