Ma. Mediatrix Escabarte

The Municipality of Maribojoc is represented by Ma. Mediatrix P. Escabarte, a 25 year old registered nurse. She finished her BS Nursing degree from Holy Name University in 2013 and graduated high school from Saint Vincent Institute as Third Honorable Mention.  Her cosmopolitan looks, refined manners and extensive travels abroad have never affected her and she remains grounded and humble who wants to give back to her community.   

PASSIONS & INTERESTS. Among her interests and passions are the following; COOKING- living independently allowed and taught her how to cook various dishes.  ANIMAL CARE – she loves animals and in fact, has taken good care of six pet dogs. She served them food, vitamins, administered deworming from puppy until full term adult as well as vet check. 

VOLUNTEERING- She has volunteered as one of the participants during their town’s coastal cleanup and in other occasions as long as she is capable of doing it.   CHILD CARE- She has been babysitting her nephews and nieces that’s why she is close to them as well as to other kids. Also during my in- flight work, if there are children on board, I entertain them by playing or offering them toys and food.
