About Me

I was born and raised in Miami, FL. I am a first generation college graduate in my family. I moved to Jacksonville, FL in 2013 to pursue my passion for nursing. I've been a nurse for 10 years and worked in neurology for 9 years. I married the love of my life, my beautiful wife and we have a loving 8 year old daughter. In my personal time I love to read, spend time with my family, and travel.

What I enjoy about being an APP is connecting with my patient s at a higher level and being bale to advocate for them. Health and wellness is vital to every day living and I plan to educate my patients to live healthy lives.

During my time at Baptist I have volunteered at TPC, doing health assessements in the community, and being apart of PRIDE, Women, young professional, bold ERGs. I love being out in the community and try often to be available to do so if I can because it's so important to give back to the community.
