My interest in the field of dental hygiene began with my own personal experience of not having the best oral health growing up, which sparked my curiosity about dentistry from a young age. I was prone to cavities and later underwent orthodontic treatment as a young adult. These personal experiences fueled my desire to learn more about oral care, not just for myself, but for others as well. I often think back and wish I had the knowledge I do now to promote healthy dental habits in my household and, more importantly, to prevent cavities early on.
My journey into dental hygiene wasn’t easy. I entered the field with no prior background or experience, and I faced several challenges along the way. However, each setback became an opportunity for growth. During my time in dental hygiene school, I’ve worked with patients with various medical conditions, deepening my understanding of the strong connection between oral and systemic health. I’m a hardworking, motivated individual who is always seeking to gain more clinical experience and continue learning in any way I can.
