As a certified dental assistant since 2010, I have grown to specialize and love digital dentistry. When I am not working with patients and making them comfortable, taking scans, and placing fillings or crowns, then I am working as the office lab technician.

Keeping almost all work in-house, utilizing SprintRay workflow but still exploring other options and techniques. Other areas of experience include Cerec Prime Scan/Mill, iTero, FormLabs, and 3shape.

Bringing a perspective from a dental assistant into the world of digital dentistry is my goal. I love spending half my day working with patients and the other half completing lab work and brightening patients smiles.
