Work History

Lead Dental Assistant

Lapinski Dental
02.2014 - Current

I am currently the lead dental assistant and administrative assistant. I supervise the entire clinical staff and I am responsibly for scheduling the doctors to a production goal. I am the liaison between the front clerical staff and the back clinical staff.

In the last year I was being transitioned to take on more of an administrative role in our dental practice. I have enjoyed my new responsibilities and look forward to learning and growing in my future dental career.
