Rob’s career in healthcare started at a very young age. Born and raised in the Philippines, Rob fondly recalls helping his grandmother, Mommy Chit, check her blood pressure and blood sugar daily. He knew then that serving older adults was his true passion and purpose.

Rob has more than 13 years of nursing experience helping people in various types of healthcare settings, but he found Senior Living to be his true calling. Rob loves working with seniors, commenting “It brings me great fulfillment to connect with my residents. They have so much wisdom, life, and joy to offer. I look forward to caring for your loved one.”
