I received my first degree, a Bachelors of Economics, from one of the most well respected University’s in the Russian Federation, Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University. But nothing has prepared me for life better than the education I received at CityTech in Brooklyn. Surrounded by the best staff of dental hygienists and doctors while working with state of the art equipment, has fully prepared me for pursing an exciting and fulfilling career as a dental hygienist.
