      Owner/RDH

      As a Dental Hygienist that is self-employed what don’t we do…I handle all aspects of my office from supply ordering to treating each patient our office has. I offer an office with a unique approach, each patient gets slippers, during their teeth cleaning appointment we have herbal eye treatments and hand paraffin treatments. The idea around my vision is a more inviting/approachable setting makes patients feel relaxed and valued.My second company I founded allows me to teach licensed dental continuing education programs. M. Dent College has been teaching dental related programs since 2013 with great success within our dental community. When I am not wearing all my self-employed hats, I find the time to work with other dental hygienist and dental practices as a consultant to train, teach and help motivate teams to accomplish their goals. I also volunteer with many programs within my city from Food Bank, Big Brother Big Sister and closely with Futurpreneur mentoring new entrepreneurs. My passion is to pay it forward, only by lifting others do we rise ourselves. Show less
