I am a New Patient Coordinator for the Smile Specialists. I truly Love my job, the most rewarding thing is sharing in the before and after transformation of all the patients. It is awesome to share in the excitement of each patient.
I have been a team member since November 1999. My greatest joy is spending time with my family, especially my 5 grandchildren. I love the beach, bike riding and collecting sea shells.
