The Bukidnon lass found out early in her beauty pageant life that you cannot please everybody. "Naniniwala po akong friendly ako. Pero yung iba nami-misinterpret nila ayaw nila sa akin kasi sinasabi nila maarte ako and mahilig mag-make-up." She finds her gay friends the most supporting though. "Sumasali po ako sa beauty contests sa Bukidnon, sa mga search sa iba't ibang munisipyo. Kinukuha nila ako like nung huli kong sinalihan sa Ms. Sugarland sa Maramag. Masaya po ako dahil nanalo naman po ako."
Besides winning beauty titles, Clare says her list of goals includes finishing her studies then helping her siblings finish their own education. "Gusto ko pong matulungan ang pamilya ko." Clare's family lived a luxurious life before her father's loaning business went bankrupt. Her father now works as a janitor at a local hospital and drives a multicab, a mode of transportation in Bukidnon, as his sideline. "Kaya nga po ako sumasali sa beauty contest sa bara-baranggay at munisipyo dito para magka-pera at matulungan ang mama at papa ko. Para kahit minsan ako naman ang bumili ng bigas." Clare reasons out to why she's striving so hard to succeed at her young age. She also states that her stint on Pinoy Big Brother will take her closer to that goal if she wins plus to another dream of hers - becoming a TV actress.
Clare doesn't consider her boyfriend, who works as a fireman in her town as a roadblock to her dreams. In fact he is very much supportive of her ambitions. "Siya pa nga ang nagsasabi na 'Sige. Sumali ka.'" She does not consider her lack of cooking skills a big minus point as a house maker nor PBB contender. "Kaya ko po maglaba at plantsa. Prito po kaya kong lutuin. Matututo din naman ako siguro balang araw."
