“I enjoy my role as a dental hygienist and get great satisfaction in helping patients improve and maintain their oral health.
I have a great love for animals, particularly dogs and have had the great pleasure of having many join our family over the years. I especially love large breeds and have had the experience of breeding to produce wonderful litters. There’s nothing like the feeling of unconditional love a dog can give you.”
