Jennifer is of Puerto Rican heritage, fluent in Spanish, the mother of four children and the wife to a Chief in the United States Navy.
Chanell was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to a family of nurses; her mom and both of her aunts. The spirit of nursing was already in her blood. She attended Central High School, the #1 high school for academics in the city, and graduated in the top 25% of her class. She went on to complete her undergraduate education at the University of Pittsburgh and graduated with her Bachelor of Science Degree in Nursing in 2012, passing her NCLEX-Registered Nurse exam that summer. She began working in the city of Chester, PA as a school nurse serving the children (and staff) in one of the most impoverished cities in the country. In 2013 she moved to the Hampton Roads area and began working as a medical-surgical and maternal-newborn nurse. While working full-time providing care to mothers and their newborns, she started her education to become a Master's-prepared Registered Nurse with Walden University. She obtained her master’s degree in the late summer of 2017 and became a certified Family Nurse Practitioner that fall.
She takes great pride in her memberships in Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority Inc, Sigma Theta Tau National Honor Society for Nurses, American Association of Nurse Practitioners, and Virginia Council of Nurse Practitioners. She has earned several Excellence in Customer Service awards with Sentara Health Care System, Bon Secours, and Portsmouth Naval Medical Center and looks forward to providing great service and care to our families at MT Curry Pediatrics.
