Career
MNL48
At the age of 14 Skribikin became a member of MNL48's first generation, which was composed of 48 members and debuted in April 2018. She was one of the top 16 members to perform the debut single of the group Aitakatta - Gustong Makita. She ranked 10th in the first edition of MNL48's General Election.[3] In January 2019, she was one of the 10 chosen representatives of MNL48 for the first AKB48 Group Asia Festival in Bangkok. She then ranked 12th in the second edition of the Election on April of the same year and was therefore part of the members to perform the group's 4th single Ikaw ang Melody. On November 25, she served as the center for MNL48's 5th single High Tension.[4] She also served as a center for the group's 6th single River together with Abby Trinidad in the later months of 2020.
This served as her last single in the group after she announced her graduation on June 29, 2021.
Pinoy Big Brother
Skribikin entered the PBB house as the "Idol Ate of Pasig". She went viral after making up the controversial phrase "MAJOHA" for answering the question wrong about GOMBURZA, during the History Quiz Bee segment of the PBB University group challenge.[5][6] Skribikin's performance in her game was excellent weeks before her controversy. Escaping the first four eviction rounds even though she didn't win any of the three Head of Household challenges, she got her first and only immunity from eviction for winning the PBB University group challenge along with their group leader and namesake Luke Alford, Ashton Salvador, Eslam El Gohari, Maxine Trinidad, and Tiff Ronato, despite her controversy. The incident prompted viewers to send more BBEs (votes to evict) for her whenever she was up for eviction. She was also awarded a Nomination Immunity Pass on Day 162 for having the greatest number of new followers during their Follower Sprint campaign.[7]
Skribikin was one of the Final Five housemates of the Teen Kumunity.[8] Despite losing seven million diamonds to the Teen houseplayers, she got the remaining three million against Alcantara, Blackburn, Jordan, and Trinidad. She would then give 250,000 diamonds each on the four of them. Skribikin then took the second Top Two spot along with Blackburn, and she along with the latter moved to the final part of the season as a Biga-10 housemate.[9] She along with Blackburn and Jordan won against the Celebrities and Adults on the first and second Kumuni-Testchallenges. Her Kumunity lost on the third and the tie-breaker challenge as the first and third Ultimate Big 5 spots were occupied by the Celebrities, meaning that only one spot will belong to a teen housemate that places first on the open voting period that was placed two days before the Big Night.
Skribikin's game finished as she failed to clinch the final Ultimate Big 5 spot as she had only gained a combined save-to-evict percentage of 14.85% against finalist and fellow Top 2 winner Blackburn's 43.37% and Jordan's 22.84%, therefore evicting her and Jordan. She only placed 7th overall.
