Jessica has been a nurse for over eight years, working primarily in the neurosurgery specialty. She loves the idea of a truly connected care team that works together to support whole health – that’s a big part of her enthusiasm for Crossover.

Jessica was born in southern California and raised in Washington. She has loved playing volleyball since the age of 10, continuing to play in her free time. You can find her at her happiest after her morning coffee and when she is catching sun rays with her husband and pup.

What makes me unique

I love cooking, eating, music, and dancing. These interests come from my family who built Saturday nights growing up around big Filipino family dinners with karaoke in the background, followed by salsa and cha-cha lessons from our aunties and uncles.

Why I practice healthcare

Healthcare gives me the opportunity to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds and hopefully make a small impact on their lives.
