Raising dairy goats
I am currently working in the dental field but I am looking into the next chapter of my professional career. I live on a small dairy goat farm outside Denver, CO with my husband and two young children. I have a passion for helping people and would like to see what I can do for others outside of the dental field. I want to bring my kind, compassionate and focused energy to your company.
Thank you for your kind consideration.
