Nicole wanted to pursue another career path, but her mother was the one who decided she should take up Physical Therapy. Her mother knew Physical Therapists were very in-demand abroad and are well-compensated. Her mother had the degree and school was already set. Nicole followed her mother's advice and enrolled in a course she barely knew about, but eventually came to appreciate and love the profession. Nicole finds value in knowing that her patients are feeling and moving better. "Seeing the joyful and grateful faces of the patients gives me fulfillment and keeps the fire of service burning". It is amazing to know that in one simple way or another, you made an impact in their life. Nicole's principles in treatment always tell her patients to take it "one step at a time". Some expect to get better and back to regular programming after 2 or 3 sessions, but it almost does not work that way. She always reminds them that healing is a gradual process and would work with their cooperation (aka being compliant with home exercises).
Nicole's hobbies outside of work are a good book is always good company. In her spare time and days off, she enjoys reading romance classic books and theology books. Nicole receives her most outstanding internship in Velez College BS Physical Therapy Batch 2018, she was also Physical Therapist of the month at Chong-Hua Rehab Medics on October 2018.

Nicole's favorite quote is "some quit due to slow progress, never grasping the fact that slow progress….is a process" - Pinterest.
