Our incredibly talented EFDA is full of advice, fun, and perspective. Read about Janie’s gorgeous wedding, her bridal advice, how she stays in shape, and why you should not be scared of the dentist!
Janie, you just got married! Congratulations!! What is the best part of being married?!
Thank you! ? I would have to say the best part of being married is at the end of a long, even stressful day you know you’ll always have someone there for you!
What three tips would you give a new bride planning her wedding?
1. DON’T STRESS
2. DON’T STRESS
3. DON’T STRESS
Haha all jokes aside, don’t sweat the small stuff. You’ll be surprised with how well everything will just fall into place-even at the last minute! Just enjoy your day with your loved one and all your friends and family.
What song did you and your man dance to?
We danced to “Only You Can Love Me This Way” by Keith Urban.
You have a full schedule with work and being a new wife, what do you do with your free time?
I absolutely love being outdoors so with the free time I do have I enjoy walking my two dogs and riding my horses!
You ride horses, when did this start and why do you love it?
As I’m sure you know, every little girl is in love with horses.. well I guess I never grew out of it! I started riding when I was about 8 years old and never stopped! I have now been competing in shows and even doing demos at the Kentucky horse park for close to 10 years.
Pink or purple?
Definitely purple!
What do you do to stay so fit?
Believe it or not, horseback riding is exercise! You use a lot of leg, core and even arm muscles!
What is your favorite part of your job?
I love helping people get their smile and confidence back! It’s also a form of art in a way. I love adding my personal touch to someone’s smile and knowing I can help them in my own unique way.
Are you a movie girl or a Netflix show marathon girl? What should we be watching?!
Oh that’s a tough one!! I love both. I would have to go with Netflix. My favorite Netflix series are Dexter, Grey’s Anatomy, and the comedy Baby Daddy.
If you could have dinner with anyone in the world, past or present, who would it be?
Oh another tough one! I would have to say probably.. Martin Luther King Jr.
What’s your go-to snack?
Popcorn!
Sweet or Savory?
I’m totally guilty of having a sweet tooth so-Sweet!
Any advice you want to give someone coming to the practice for the first time?
I have a lot of patients who are petrified of the dentist and it truly saddens me. I want everyone to know and realize we are only here to help you have not only a beautiful smile but a healthy one too. We have an amazing staff who truly cares about you and your dental health.
