About

I started my nursing career in 2003 after I graduated with BSN degree. I worked as a Nursing Instructor and Registered Nurse (RN) until I graduated with MSN degree in 2016 and certified as a Family Nurse Practitioner. In between, I also earned Master in Public Health (MPH) and Master of Education in Health Education (MEd.) degrees.
Being an advanced practice registered nurse (APRN) with an educational background in Health Education and Public Health, I am dedicated to provide best health care possible to patients. I am a strong advocate of patient education and always encourage patient to take an active role in their health. My passion is to help people achieve their optimal health and wellness.
