Summary

I have six years of general dentistry experience and I am currently on my third year as an orthodontist assistant. I am currently looking for better opportunities in my job field. I speak both English and Spanish and consider myself a fast learner. My communication with the patient is great. I love what I do and I make sure they leave understanding the purpose of the procedure and the importance of oral health.
