I graduated from West Chicago Community High School back in 2005. I decided to go into the medical field because I enjoy helping others. Around 2009 I took a CNA course and worked with elderly for about 9 years. I joined Smiles Dental team back in 2016. My work experience as Dr. Puris dental assistant has been a posititive one. I love helping patients obtain their perfect smile and heathly mouth. I could not imagine a better place to work.
