My passion to serve others started at an early age with my grandfather being a physician and my mom being a nurse. My grandfather was the doctor of the city! He invested his time with his patients, family, and friends. His excellent care paved the wave for my foundation today…. which includes walking on hot coals, thanks grandpa!
I played club soccer growing up and was on my high school varsity team. I even had the pleasure to coach my little sister and enjoyed watching both sisters play the game I love. In high school, I joined Health Occupations Student Association (HOSA) to learn more about healthcare. Like many, I changed my major in college a few times. I considered a biology major, being a pharmacist, and even a crime scene investigator (I sure love CSI). I was relieved when I committed to following in my mom’s footsteps and became a nurse. I knew I wanted to be in pediatrics because I used to love babysitting and helping out with my younger sisters.
