I received my Bachelors degree in Dental Hygiene from Old Dominion University in 2023. I will receive my Masters degree in Dental Hygiene from Old Dominion University in 2025. My short term goals are to achieve my masters degree and obtain a dental hygiene job where I can further develop my skills. My long term goals are to establish myself as a public health dental hygienist and work under remote supervision. My research interests lie in public health. It is an area of dental hygiene that I am passionate about since there are many people who are not able to afford or have access to dental care. I would like to make a difference in this area of dental hygiene.
