Volunteer
In my spare time, I would spend a few hours a week at the Humane Society of the North Bay here in Vallejo, CA. I would work with animals ranging from friendly large dogs, skittish puppies, playful cats, and to tiny kittens. I love to spend my time here as they rely on their volunteers to help find these animals new and loving homes!
Motivations
Family
My family is my number #1 motivation. My father works in the Biotech Industry, my mother works as a Certified Nursing Assistant at a VA, and my younger brother is majoring in Math at St. Mary's College. They motivate me everyday, and I want to be able to reciprocate all that they have done for me someday.
Culture
My culture is also a huge inspiration of mine. Although Nursing and other various Healthcare professions run in the Filipino heritage, it is primarily due to our compassion and our intention to serve others. I am proud of being Filipino-American, and intend on making my family back home in the Philippines as inspired as they have made me.
Nature
One of my favorite hobbies is hiking! I love to be out in nature, reconnecting with my environment, and being able to take a break from work & school. To the right are some pictures that I've captured on these adventures.
