Being a part of Kolehiyo ng Lungsod ng Dasmariñas has been an incredible honor and a truly humbling experience. I am a product of the public education system and have personally experienced the highs and lows of being a public school student. Every day, as I walked through the school gates, I carried with me nothing but dreams, aspirations, and a burning ambition to create a better life for myself and my family.
What I have achieved thus far is a result of unwavering determination, relentless hard work, and an unyielding belief in the power of dreams. It has taken immense patience, countless sacrifices, and a refusal to ever give up. I firmly believe that one’s socioeconomic background should never be a barrier to success, but rather a powerful driving force that propels us forward, pushing us to reach for the stars and achieve our dreams.
I vividly remember one of my professors sharing a profound piece of wisdom that has stayed with me ever since: “Success is just up there, waiting for you to seize it or let it slip away.” These words have become a guiding light in my journey, reminding me that success is not a distant, unattainable dream but rather a tangible reality that we have the power to grasp. It is up to us to embrace the challenges, overcome the obstacles, and seize every opportunity that comes our way.
I want to take a moment to express my utmost gratitude to the City Government of Dasmariñas for providing opportunities to less fortunate students. By offering access to quality education, you have given them the chance to transform their lives, fulfill their aspirations, and pursue their ambitions. Your unwavering support and belief in their potential have instilled in them a sense of purpose and a deep appreciation for the power of education.
As the Dean of the Institute of Nursing at Kolehiyo ng Lungsod ng Dasmariñas, I am inspired by our institution’s vision and mission. We envision our College of Nursing to be the premier nursing school that excels in education, develops globally competitive nurses, and contributes to health equity, the transformation of the health and well-being of people, and community development.
Our mission is to compassionately educate students who will play a vital role in promoting the well-being of people. We achieve this mission through our commitment to excellence in teaching and learning, fostering strong partnership networks, and providing service to others.
In our journey towards excellence, we strive to prepare our students with accessible and quality education that empowers them to succeed in their careers. We create an environment that encourages collaboration, excellence, and creativity for learning, scholarship, and professional development.
As leaders in the community and the nursing profession, we aim to inspire and guide our students to become compassionate and competent nurses. We continuously innovate and excel in teaching to support their success. Moreover, we promote excellence in research and other scholarly productivity outputs to contribute to the advancement of nursing knowledge and practice.
Let us embark on this journey together, embracing the values of compassion, excellence, and service as we strive towards a brighter future for nursing and healthcare.
