Business Management in De La Salle University in 1996. She holds a master's degree in Culinary Arts in the prestigious school Le Cordon Bleu in London, England.

Career

She belongs to the NPC-AIM party and served as the House Deputy Minority Leader in the 13th Congress of the Philippines.

In the May 14, 2007, elections, she defeated her challenger and future representative Manny Pacquiao by more than thirty thousand votes.

On May 10, 2010, she ran for the mayoralty of General Santos and won.

On May 14, 2013, she was defeated by councilor Ronnel Rivera in her bid for a second term as Mayor of General Santos in the 2013 elections.

She has not participated in local politics since her 2013 defeat. In November 2021, addressing speculations of a political comeback in the 2022 elections, Antonino Custodio announced that she was not running for mayor of General Santos. She was also unhappy with the political situation in the country, citing "party politics has been erased and shifted to personality politics."
