I am a registered nurse and proud graduate of Sacramento City College, currently enrolled in an RN to MSN program as I continue building toward my focused goal of earning a Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) and becoming a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). Community outreach has always been a passion of mine, rooted in my core values of connection, equity, and belonging. I have served as the Community Outreach and Breakthrough to Nursing Cabinet Member for the SCC-National Student Nurses’ Association and continue to volunteer and connect with the community through opportunities that allow me to inspire others.

I currently serve as a panelist and volunteer for UC Davis Health SHINES (Summer Health Institute for Nursing Exploration and Success), a volunteer for UC Davis Health’s No One Dies Alone program, and a speaker for the California Community Colleges ICanGoToCollege campaign, where I connect with current and prospective students.

This commitment led me to create a pre-nursing resource hub, inspired by my work as a microbiology tutor at FLC. The microbiology professor and I shared a vision of supporting students, and after navigating my own application process, I recognized the need for streamlined, accessible resources for pre-nursing students. I developed these tools with a genuine passion to guide and empower students in achieving their goals of becoming future healthcare professionals. The hub aims to remove barriers to information and ensure that all students, regardless of their background, have the support they need to succeed.

I’m dedicated to creating positive, lasting connections that help people feel supported and valued. My goal is to make a meaningful impact through compassionate care and by building a sense of community wherever I go!
