About Me

Location: New York, New York, United States

I was born and raised in General Santos, also known as "Dadiangas" located in the southern tip of Philippine Island called Mindanao. I spent my gradeschool at Dadiangas West Central Elementary School (graduated in 1990) in General Santos, then went to Mindanao State University for high school (graduated in 1994) still in General Santos and finally, University of Bohol for college where I got my bachelor’s degree in Physical Therapy in March 2001 located in Tagbilaran City, Bohol. After college, I went back to my hometown in General Santos and helped out in our family business until on February 2003, that's when I left for New York, USA.

Congratulations!

This is to congratulate my youngest sister, Charissa, on passing the Philippine Nursing Board exam held on June 11-12, 2006.

My sister's name can be found on page 363 of the 368-page Official Result from the Professional Regulation Commission or better known as PRC. She's one of the 17,821 who passed the exam out of 42,006 who took it.

The exam results were delayed for almost a month due to a rumored exam leakage involving one of the nursing review centers in Baguio, Philippines.

Charissa, as she likes everyone to call her, was a batch 2006 Nursing graduate of the Holy Name University in Bohol, Philippines.

Again, congratulations from Jonah, Jasmine and I as well as from Papa, Mama, Ivy and Dante and of course, Melgar.

Way to go girl! We are looking forward for you to join us here in the US!
