I am from Northern Arizona and grew up on the Navajo reservation, where I spent most of my life. I moved here to Mesquite in 2006. I have been dental assisting for eight years and have worked with Dr. Ofori since moving here. I enjoy working with my team at Cosmopolitan Dental, and the best part of that is working with the wonderful patients we have. I have two children whom I love to spend every moment with when Im not working. I also enjoy playing sports when I can on my spare time.
I was born in Fresno, California. I moved to Mesquite and began working for Dr. Ofori in 2006. Every year has been great, and it keeps getting better! Some of my hobbies are camping, running, reading books and spending time with friends and family.
I was born and raised in Overton, Nevada. I received my dental hygiene license in 1980 after graduating from the first dental hygiene class at the College of Southern Nevada. In 1986, I moved to Wyoming, where I worked in a periodontal practice for eight years. Returning to southern Nevada in 1994, I was a dental hygienist for several periodontal and general practices in Las Vegas and Logandale before joining Cosmopolitan Dental in November 2011.
I am proud to provide my patients with the best in dental technology, treatment options and patient comfort. Because we live in a small community, I like to get to know my patients and treat them like friends. Im happy that they enjoy the personal attention and love coming in here. As the mother of three, I understand the value of gentleness and patience and will always take the time you need to explain my findings and treatment recommendations so you feel both well cared-for and well informed.
