I'm a certified dental assistant and pre-dental student with 3 years of hands-on chairside experience and a strong background in healthcare, customer service, and admin work. I take pride in making patients feel comfortable, supporting my team, and staying organized in fast-paced environments. I'm currently pursuing my Biology degree while gaining real-world experience—and I'm excited to keep growing wherever compassion, hard work, and adaptability are valued.
