MY MOTIVATION Parents, Siblings, Family Make good $$$. Support my Parents financially. Have luxuries (house, car, etc.) Be Successful. Having the title of being a Dentist. Make my parents proud.

MY LIFE EXPERIENCES Grandma was a dentist -- inspirational. Braces at the age of 13 – improved my smile and self-esteem. Shadowed variety of Dentists – as my passion grew, I realized my career could revolve around becoming a Dentist. Witnessing and sharing in patient’s satisfaction after various dental procedures. Joined Pre-dental club which allowed me to participate in many dentistry related activities.

“GIVE KIDS A SMILE” Community service Did coloring activities and played with kids while they waited to be treated. Dentists provide free dental care to underprivileged children. Taught children how to properly brush teeth.

MY KEY VALUES Family Reliable Honest Diverse Teamwork Responsible Open-minded

MY STRENGTHS Determined. Hardworking. Understanding. I take pride in everything I do. In the profession of Dentistry, I will be able to successfully communicate with my clients and give them the quality dental care they need.
