Ana Baranco, Parish Administrator

A native of Panama, Ana has been a Gloucester resident for the last 15 years.  She has a Bachelor’s Degree in Finance  from Universidad Santa Maria La Antigua, Catholic University in Panama.  Most of her professional experience has been in banking, as well Real Estate and most recently she became a Patient Care Aide (PCA) which has  become her passion for the last 4 years, as a Caregiver for the elderly.
