Summary

With a smile and dedication, I bring over 18 years of invaluable experience in dental management and leadership roles to the table. You may find it charming to know that I've been part of the same incredible team for a remarkable 26 years—a journey filled with learning and growth that I cherish dearly. At heart, I'm truly passionate about my work and prioritize the business and each patient interaction.

With my motivation to always continue to learn and transferrable skills, I am looking forward to contributing my wealth of experience to the role of a dental receptionist or treatment coordinator, where I can greet patients with a warm smile and assist them seamlessly through their dental journey. And if the need arises, you can count on me to lend a hand as a dental nurse, combining my passion for patient care with a willingness to adapt and grow.
