Jonathan Tibaldo began his career in healthcare in 2000 as an EMT, an experience that sparked his passion for emergency medicine and ultimately led him to pursue nursing. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Nursing from The University of Texas Medical Branch in 2005 and spent the majority of his nursing career in emergency care settings.
In 2014, Jonathan returned to UTMB to complete his Master of Science in Nursing and became a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner. He later earned a second board certification as an Emergency Nurse Practitioner, reflecting his continued commitment to clinical excellence in acute care.
Jonathan has over two decades of healthcare experience and has served as a Nurse Practitioner in both emergency departments and mobile urgent care settings. For the last five years, he worked with a mobile urgent care, including three years in a leadership role as Lead Advanced Practice Provider, where he helped drive operational efficiency and clinical quality across his team.
A lifelong Texan, Jonathan grew up just southeast of Houston and enjoys rural life with his husband, Jaime, and their three children. Together, they maintain a small farm with a thriving garden, a flock of approximately 60 chickens, and a herd of 12 cattle.
