Customer Service/ Sales Associate at I worked in the Tanning Industry for six and a half years where I gained the bulk of my customer service/sales skills. As a tanning consultant, I wore many hats that were not limited to the title of my job, but had been an added addition to the knowledge I gained in being a tanning consultant.

About

I am currently enrolled in the Dental Assisting Program at American Career College. I am studying to become a Registered Dental Assistant with hopes of furthering my education in becoming a Dental Hygienist in the state of California. I have always loved going to the dentist because the atmosphere of a dental office attracted me toward wanting to provide care to individuals in the same fashion. Experiencing comfort, attentiveness, and efficiency provided with a smile by the dental staff motivated me toward wanting to work in the dental field. As a current student, I am getting the hands on experience/training that I've been craving, which has deepened my passion for dental and continues to feed the hunger I have for working in this field. Helping people has always been my purpose in giving back to a place that has given so much to me. In becoming a Registered Dental Assistant, I'll have the ability to spread my purpose within individuals whom I can help and assist with a smile that can stretch for miles.

Outside the classroom

I thoroughly enjoy golfing, I find going to the driving range to be a great stress reliever as well as a calming way to recharge my batteries.
Going to Disneyland has been a hobby that I've enjoyed since I was a child.
Hanging out with my family and playing Crazy Gin, which is an old Italian card game that my mom taught me how to play (curtesy of my grandmother).
I love to learn, whether its revisiting old information or being given new information.
Dinning in or out is certainly a favorable hobby of mine.

Volunteering

  • In January of 2018, my little brother was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukemia. Upon his waiting for a bone marrow transplant, I and my older brother were asked to volunteer to get tested by Be The Match in determining if either one of us would be a match for his transplant.
