What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a dental hygiene opportunity in the NYC area where I can provide excellent patient care, research-based education, and clear guidance on comprehensive, multidisciplinary treatment plans.

At Pinnacle Center Dental Implants and Periodontics, I lead dental hygiene care across treatment planning, patient education, radiography, oral cancer screening, scaling and root planing, and periodontal surgical assisting.

I've supported extractions, implants, periodontal surgeries, and gingival grafting, including PRF/PRP materials, while using Dentrix, Dexis, and Eaglesoft. I focus on helping patients understand comprehensive, multidisciplinary treatment plans through research-based education.

Before dental hygiene, I built healthcare experience at UPMC Presbyterian Shadyside and long-term care settings, providing direct patient care, phlebotomy, vital signs, telemetry, infection control, documentation, and emergency support. I bring more than 13 years of cumulative healthcare experience and a consistent commitment to excellent patient care.
