My role involves providing leadership and guidance to the hygiene team, mentoring and training other hygienists, and managing the ongoing continuing education of our staff. I am committed to exceeding clinical standards and fostering positive patient rapport.

Throughout my career, I have optimized operational efficiency through meticulous management of hygiene instruments and inventory control. I communicate confidently with insurance providers to verify patient eligibility, process claims, and explain benefits and dental terminology to patients. My dedication to professional development keeps me informed of the latest advancements in dental hygiene, ensuring that I provide the best care possible.

My key achievements include consistently exceeding production milestones, improving patient case acceptance rates, and enhancing patient satisfaction. I have developed and implemented effective treatment protocols and have successfully increased new patient intake through collaboration and strategic planning.
