It has been my privilege to serve Ogemaw County as an oral health professional for the past 14 years. My passion is helping people. I absolutely love advocating and educating for individuals to have healthy smiles which can lead to better health over a lifetime. I have been involved in Children's Dental Health for the past 11 years. I have created and taught an educational program geared to Pre-K and K children to help instill lifelong values for oral health. Every year in February, which is Children's Dental Health Month, I have the opportunity to present this program at Surline Elementary. I was able to plan and implement an oral hygiene program for staff at nursing homes and long term care facilities, which I administered at The Villa. I have passion for public health. From May 2014 to June 2015 I advocated, created and implemented a coalition for the optimal level of fluoride in West Branch's city water system. The city of West Branch passed the maintenance of the optimal level of fluoride in June 2015.
