I was born in the Philippines and was raised in Rialto, a city in southern California. I went to undergrad in California State University, Long Beach and went to medical school at the University of California, San Francisco. While in school I met my future wife, Aurora, and we both decided to go to sunny Tucson to receive outstanding, full spectrum family medicine training at the UA Family Medicine Residency. I plan to explore this wonderful city on my free time with my wife and co-residents, and get back to into my favorite past time--breakdancing.
