In my practice, I have been very successful with the holistic approach to patient care in the treatment of mental health issues. I  started my Nursing career as a psychiatric nurse and worked my way up. I received my Master’s degree and Post-Master's Certificate as a PMHNP at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV). Early in my career I was usually put in the position of leadership and mentoring therefore to utilize those skills. I am currently part of the Faculty at UTRGV PMHNP post-master’s certificate program as a clinical assistant professor. From my love of the healthcare profession to my empathetic nature as a driving force,  I remain steadfast in my abilities and I am passionate about my practice. Embracing change and finding the knowledge to navigate charter waters is one of my unique qualities. My experience includes Lifespan psychiatry, Addiction Disease, and Geriatric Psychiatry as a  Hospitalist.

I am bicultural and bilingual in Spanish and English, and embracing diversity is another one of my strengths. In my spare time, I am an avid reader, I am interested in getting to know about other cultures and languages. I am a lifelong learner, I believe in the pursuit of knowledge to enhance social inclusion, remove barriers to the delivery of mental health,  and promote constant personal growth.
