I worked a lot of jobs before making this decision. Flipping burgers, Land clearing, Pitching watermelons, laying sodIm glad I had the opportunity to work these jobs. However, at some point a few years after high school, I decided to take the leap and go to school full time. First I thought I wanted to be a physical education teacher, but after 1 year of substitute teaching I realized that I still had not figured out what I really wanted to do for a living. I got some advice to think about what I enjoyed as a child and I loved going to the dentist when I was a kid. So I decided to visit some dental offices. I volunteered, and the more I was around it the more I loved it. I loved meeting new people. Helping them out was like nothing I had done before. Now, a decade later I can say a career in dentistry is the perfect fit.
It was either this or a sporting goods store (just kidding). I worked as a dentist at a few other offices. At one point, I thought I was going to buy in to an existing practice. In the end this was the very best option for a million reasons and I went for it.
I am passionate about making sure that each person that I come in contact with is satisfied with my work. If they are not, I know I have not done my job. I enjoy meeting new people, learning new procedures and learning new ways of doing things. I enjoy seeing people from all walks of life and of all ages. If you want me to look in your mouth, Im there!
