About Me

HIV medicine has always found a way into my professional life since 2001, when I worked as an NIH research trainee and laboratory technician at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, MD. During my time there, I had the honor of working with some of the best physicians who truly became my mentors in Infectious Diseases (ID). I remember rounding through the inpatient HIV unit as well as the Moore Clinic and witnessing the most complicated of HIV/AIDS cases. The voices and faces of the people living with HIV/AIDS at that time never left my heart. I have found myself continually returning to HIV medicine later in my career as a nurse. Every day in which I serve my patients I am reminded not only of their vulnerability, but their resilience and spirit too. It is an incredibly rewarding field in which to work. I joined AHF because of its commitment to people living with HIV/AIDS and HIV prevention.

Fun Fact: I am a dual citizen of the US and Panama and love to travel. I am an animal-lover. Favorite activities: running, singing. Favorite foods: any kind of plantain.
