Kris is a Commercial Banking professional with Royal Bank of Canada (RBC), where she brings extensive experience in financial analysis, client strategy, and commercial lending. She lives in Winnipeg with her partner and family.

Born and raised in the Philippines, Kris immigrated to Canada in 2007. Like many newcomers, she arrived from a culture where reproductive health was rarely discussed openly — a gap that shaped her understanding of just how vital accessible, judgment-free health resources are for women navigating new lives in a new country. Women's Health Clinic was that resource for her, and her board involvement is a direct expression of that gratitude and commitment.

Outside of her professional life, Kris is a partner and a mother of two young children. She knows firsthand the realities of balancing a demanding career with the joys and challenges of raising a family — and the importance of having trusted health resources at every stage of that journey. Kris is also a board member of Mabuhay District, a Filipino-Canadian community organization, where she continues to bridge her heritage with her dedication to community service.
