Care Team at PACE East Oakland

I’m a big believer in social justice, especially for the most vulnerable seniors with health issues. I lost my mother close to 20 years ago. She lived alone without much support and care through multiple health issues. The PACE model of care draws me to CEI. Seeing PACE in action reminds me of what could have been done for her and I am driven to improve the living condition of other seniors, who have sacrificed so much for us.
After graduating with my bachelor’s in business administration from the University of Ghana and moving to the United States, I began my career working with unhoused individuals and families. I come to Center for Elders’ Independence with close to 25 years experience managing homeless services including shelters, permanent supportive housing, drop-in centers, and food programs in the South Bay.
I came across many seniors who were homeless due to health and other reasons. I chose to join CEI as I’m passionate about serving elders.
I speak several Ghanaian languages including Fante, Twi, and GA in addition to English.
My family of my spouse and three children all enjoy playing soccer as well as camping at music festivals, cooking and traveling.

I respect our elders and see being a part of the PACE team as a way to help them stay healthy, mentally and physically. I like to encourage participants to care about all aspects of their life. Elders are still people that need treatment but might need more help getting it. I’m drawn to PACE because of the integrated teams and all around care beyond medication.
I started my physician journey at UC Berkeley in the pre-med program and then earning my medical degree at Ross University School of Medicine. I spent my early years as a physician in Merced, CA. I then joined the South of Market Health Center in San Francisco as a family physician, then promoted to Site Medical Director.
I was inspired to work with seniors and joined Center for Elders’ Independence.
I speak English, basic Korean, and am learning medical Spanish.
Outside of the clinic, I find yoga, traveling, cooking and enjoying the arts to be passions of mine. I like to focus on my family and friends and extend that out to the community. I try to remember every day to love life and to love those around me.

I strongly believe that independence is an important aspect of healthcare, especially for older adults. I am inspired to provide compassionate care that enhances their quality of life. It is deeply fulfilling to me.
While working as a registered nurse in a skilled nursing facility, I saw how compassionate care could significantly improve the lives of my patients. I felt a strong calling to focus on senior healthcare so I could make a profound difference in senior lives.
Born and raised in the Philippines, I earned my masters in nursing at Concordia College. Shortly afterwards, I moved to the United States with my parents and siblings landing in the San Francisco Bay Area. I decided to further my education by attending and graduating from Samuel Merritt University, where I earned my Family Practitioner Master’s degree.
I speak fluent English and Tagalog.
During my free time, I love taking walks, watching movies, and having fun being a new parent to a baby girl. I enjoy spending time with my family.

Caring for the whole person is extremely important to me. PACE inspires me with the holistic approach to care. I get the most satisfaction when I can meet the person where they are and provide individualized care. There are so many different factors and various pieces to be healthy and PACE allows me to engage with someone on numerous levels. I have always worked with elders, as I always wanted to support an underserved population.
I started my nursing career at San Francisco State University by earning my Bachelors of Science Degree from the School of Nursing there. Several years later, I earned my Masters from UCSF completing the Family Nurse Practitioner program. After completing my studies, I began working as a nurse practitioner in cardiology. Then I moved onto a private practice, then to extensive palliative care providing care in homes and skilled nursing facilities. I spent much of my career working with elders and I am honored to do so.
I speak English.
I do a lot of volunteering at my church leading the health ministry as well as spending time with my family. I enjoy listening and singing pop, gospel and my native Nigerian music. I moved to the SF Bay Area close to 40 years ago and call the area home.
