You are such a hard worker, tell us about why you love working at Magnolia Dental?
I pride myself in being a part of such a caring team of people.  I feel we give top quality care to every patient that walks through our door.  We give patients options, and we as providers can connect and build a trusting relationship with our patients.
 
What do you do in your free time?
In my free time I like going to reptile shows, cooking/baking, going to thrift stores, and visiting with friends.
 
Rihanna or Taylor?
If I had to choose between the two, I would choose Rihanna because I feel like I can connect with her style of music.
 
What are the 3 best things about living in Chillicothe?
I like the convenience of being close to the pet stores. Chillicothe has a Kroger next my work.  I like that Chillicothe is always growing and bringing new and exciting stores and restaurants to it’s residents.
 
Who is your hero?
My mom is my hero, she has to be one of the strongest, hardest working people I know.  She has a heart of gold and would do anything she possibly can to help anyone in need.  She taught me to work hard and be a responsible person and good things will happen for me in life.
 
You work out and eat healthy foods, tell us about your health journey and what keeps you motivated…  
Well to answer this question honestly, I have fallen off the wagon for a few months.  In the beginning seeing progress is what kept me motivated. I was a very unhealthy person when I started my health journey.  I was a smoker and on blood pressure medication.  I decided that I needed to take control of my health, I’ve been a non smoker for over a year now, and off my blood pressure medication.  I believe that what we take into our bodies plays a big role in how our bodies work and feel.
 
Dogs or Cats?
Both, I couldn’t imagine my life without my dog, or my cat.  If you would have asked me this question before I got my Sphynx cat Kenji, I would have said dogs.  The Sphynx breed is a very unique breed of cat besides just being hairless, they have a personality unlike regular cats.  It’s like having a cat, dog, monkey, and child all rolled into one animal.

If you could visit one of the 7 wonders of the world which one would you choose? Why?
I would choose one of the seven natural wonders of the world.  My choice would be the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.  The reason I chose this one is because the crystal clear water looks so inviting and plus, it’s Australia!
 
4 things you are most thankful for?
My pets, my health, my mother, and having a career that I can truly say I love.
 
What did you want to be when you grew up?
Growing up I always wanted to be a veterinarian because of my love for animals
 
Turkey, Chicken, or something else?
Both, but one of my other favorites is calamari.
 
First thought this morning when you woke up….  
Is it really time to wake up already?
 
What do you want our Magnolia Dental patients to know about visiting our office?  
I want our patients at Magnolia Dental to know that they will receive quality care from a caring, and compassionate group of staff that only have the best interest of our patients in mind.
