Marco Gumabao and his girlfriend, Cristine Reyes, are not just a power couple on screen; they're proving to be a force to be reckoned with in the world of public service, too. The pair recently completed a certificate course in Public Service Administration from the University of the Philippines - National College of Public Administration and Governance, along with the Center for Policy and Executive Development.

Taking to Instagram, Gumabao shared his sense of achievement with his followers, posting, "Every day is a new opportunity to learn and grow. Successfully finished my Public Service Administration certificate course... On to new heights—this time wiser, and with God by my side." He also gave a heartfelt thanks to his professors and didn’t forget to include a special mention for Cristine, who took on the course alongside him. “Thank you for taking this with me, @cristinereyes,” he added.

The accomplishment comes at an exciting time for Marco, who recently filed his certificate of candidacy (COC) for Camarines Sur's Fourth District Representative. It seems the actor is more than ready to take on the challenges of public office, armed not only with determination but also newly acquired knowledge to better serve his community.

With both Marco and Cristine reaching new heights together, it’s clear this couple is setting the bar high for personal and professional growth. Whether it’s on the screen or in public service, they’re making it clear they’re in it together, supporting each other every step of the way.
