Pinay Visionaries: Celebrating Filipina American Women Louella is the daughter of the late Frederick and Nora Villamayor. She migrated to the United States with her husband Manny Compas in March 31, 1970. She has three children: Lieszl, Miriam, and Arnell. She graduated from the University of the East in Manila with a Bachelor of Science in Education. Hired straight out of university, she began teaching at the College of the Holy Spirit before coming to the United States. Once in Houston, she began working as a medical transcriptionist at various hospitals in the Texas Medical Center. While working, she became very active in various Filipino organizations such as “Tawag Ng Tanghalan” where she became president of the Filipino American Society of the performing arts (FASPA). Louella also performed in several dance companies and sang in different bands and singing groups. In February, 1997, she became active in the Couples for Christ (CFC) after finishing the Christian Life Program (CLP) where she in turn continued to teach the program throughout Texas. As for hobbies, she loves to collect mugs, matches, and magnets from all over America and other countries. She also loves to draw, color, paint, and work in arts and crafts, and watch movies. Additionally, she can play the Ukelele, piano, guitar, compose her own music, sing, and dance. After her father, Frederick Villamayor, passed away in 2010, she decided to join the organization he founded, the United Senior Citizens of Texas, Inc. (USCAT). The following year, she became secretary and served for five years. She has since become the Vice President, “I love to serve the seniors, USCAT is like a second family to me.” Louella is the recent winner of Ms. USCAT 2019. The Compas family is considered one of the celebrated first Filipino families of Houston. #FAHM #2019FAHM #FAHM2019 @fanhshtx @fanhs_national #rolemodelsthatlooklikeus #DIVA #pinayvisionary
