Hometown: Crystal River, FL

The first job I ever had: Babysitting my neighbor's kids.

Why did you decide on a Dental Field? Dental actually chose me! After high school, I enlisted in the Air Force with hopes of becoming a physical therapy assistant. It was not available at the time, manning-wise. So, I went in "open general," which allowed the Air Force to pick a career for me. I was just hoping it would be something medical, and I got lucky because they selected dental assistant for me. I loved it so much that it led me to become a dental hygienist. 

Hobbies & Interests: Concerts, weightlifting, family time, and I also love animals. 

What is something people don't know about you? I have traveled to 24 countries so far in my life. I also have a rock collection. I've been collecting them since I was a kid.
