I grew up in Lancaster County, mostly in Manheim Township. Ever since I was little I never had a problem going to the dentist. I was in and out of the dentist and orthodontic offices for many years and started to think I might enjoy a career in the dental field. I have a very caring personality and want to help people any way that I can.
I graduated from Manheim Township High School in 2009 and attended YTI for dental assisting and graduated in 2010. I was required to do an externship for school, and with Dr. Parker being my general dentist I asked to do my externship with her. I loved it! I was very glad when I was then offered a job with her and the other girls! I love interacting with the patients and coming to the office every day not knowing what to expect! Before starting with Dr. Parker, I worked at Oregon Dairy for 3 ½ years.
In my spare time I enjoy hanging out with friends and family, and spending time at the bay in the summer. My whole family and I volunteer at the Neffsville Fire Company, which is a great way to stay close as a family and give back to the community.
