About me

I love learning and developing my skills as a nurse, and I enjoy the challenges that come with this profession. After being a critical care nurse for more than a decade, I decided to pursue post-graduate education. I became a Nurse Practitioner so that I could offer more to my patients.

I aspire to help my patients to the best of my knowledge and ability while providing the caring compassion that they deserve. My goal is to help my patients and their families understand their treatment plans and feel they’ve been given the best care possible.

I was born and raised in the Philippines and am fluent in both English and Tagalog. I come from a family of nurses, including a maternal grandmother who served as a Director of Nursing in the Philippine Navy during the Korean and Vietnam Wars. My husband and I moved to Lebanon, NH, from Jacksonville, FL, in the Fall of 2019. We enjoy hiking, watching movies, and time with our pets.
