Fun Fact
I was pre-med in undergrad, but changed to pre-dental after researching the career & discovering the potential for more life balance. The fun part was that dentistry, as a profession, was sparked by a conversation with my orthodontist at a retainer check visit while home on a summer break. Today, I enjoy conversing with our college aged patients who often visit us for retainer appointments during their breaks.
