As a Center Director, I found my life’s passion. By participating in the care for our seniors, seeing the positive outcomes is incredibly rewarding and fulfilling for me. I started on this path at age 14 when I worked at a retirement community and feel very blessed to be in this direct role. I bring my problem solving skills to each participant with the goal of relieving their stress, as they no longer have to attempt to figure things out on their own. From my experience as a family caregiver for my mother and experiences working in this field, I understand their challenges and serve as a strong advocate for their highest well-being with the many tools in my toolbox.
After graduating with my Bachelor of Science in Health Services Administration from California State University, Chico, I started to work in healthcare in the human resources department at a home health and hospice agency. From there, I joined Center for Elders’ Independence in 2006 as a human resources analyst bringing my love of training and development to the role.
Seven years later, I was thrilled to be promoted to Center Director for the Berkeley Center.
When I’m not at work, I enjoy baking cupcakes with my kids and sharing them with others. My husband and three kids are very active in sports in Concord. At my church, I am a music minister by singing and playing the guitar during Sunday services.

Hearing my patients share, “I can do this thing again!” makes my work worth all of the efforts and dedication. When I see them become more functional under my care, it strengthens my commitment to this group of amazing people.
When I first see someone, I respectfully listen to their many challenges, whether it’s with their day-to-day living or having to manage numerous medications. We work together with all of the support under our PACE healthcare model to improve health by removing barriers to get much needed services. By seeing my patients once a month, we get better control of medications. They are far less anxious and they struggle much less. It truly is an ideal setting for our beloved seniors.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree from UC Davis, then completed my medical degree at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila, Philippines. I did my post-grad residency training at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey at CentraState Medical Center in New Jersey. While there, I solidified my desire to work with older adults under very dedicated geriatrics mentors. Soon after, I moved to Philadelphia to complete my fellowship in Geriatric Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania Health System. I returned home to the Bay Area to be closer to family and raise my children.
In addition to English, I speak conversational Filipino (Tagalog).
When I’m not seeing participants, I enjoy hiking, watching professional and college sports, and spending time with my wife and kids. My childre

It’s now more important than ever to understand our collective history from all kinds of perspectives so we don’t make the same mistakes. I learn so much as I hear the stories our participants share with me. Being able to access medical care, mental health resources, physical therapy, dentistry and other specialties all in one place allows seniors a chance to relax and heal. As a provider, I see a patient thrive as all the pieces of a healthcare plan come together and work wonders.
After spending six years as a journalist for the Chicago Tribune, I shifted careers by attending nursing school at Truman College in Chicago earning an ADN degree in 2011. After three years as a registered nurse, I transferred to San Francisco location within the Kindred Healthcare Centers in 2013.
I joined Center for Elders’ Independence also as a registered nurse in 2015 and that’s when I fell in love with seniors. I decided to earn a Masters of Science in Nursing from Holy Names University in Oakland and become a nurse practitioner. I am very excited to return to CEI to continue my mission of making a positive difference in lives.
I speak English and limited Spanish. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my fabulous husband and our growing collection of cats, dogs and turtles. We like to hike the beautiful, lush green trails in the Bay Area along with yoga and travel.

Preventing health complications and empowering others to take control of their health is inspiring to me every day. With PACE, I can get to know the seniors far better to help them achieve their health goals and what matters most to them.
My grandfather and our family was well-taken care of after experiencing a stroke by a multi-disciplinary team of experts. This inspired me to become a nurse and I’m excited to be a part of the PACE multi-disciplinary team here at Center for Elders’ Independence.
I studied nursing at Sonoma State University earning both my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Nursing there. After completing my studies, I started my career as a registered nurse in Napa Valley at a skilled nursing facility. From there, I grew my career to nurse practitioner in Sacramento. Before joining CEI, I worked as a nurse practitioner at a family care clinic serving a wide range of people.
I speak English. On weekends, I enjoy spending time with my family and three dogs along with traveling, visiting Disneyland, attending SF Giants games and trying new foods. I’ve lived in Northern California for most of my life.
