Bio

I am a first-generation graduate from California with a bachelor's degree in Kinesiology, emphasizing physical therapy, from San Diego State University. I am now pursuing my Master of Science in Nursing at the University of San Diego with the goal of becoming an empathetic nurse who prioritizes patient advocacy and clear communication. Passionate about leadership and mentorship, I aspire to educate and inspire future healthcare professionals while promoting compassionate, patient-centered care in diverse communities.
