What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated dental assistant with hands-on clinical experience from M State Dental Hygiene Clinic and current practice at Parker Modern Dentistry.

My background includes dental assisting education (Diploma, M State), related caregiving roles supporting independent living and residential care, and certifications in CPR, First Aid, and BLS which strengthen my clinical reliability.
