SheriDental Hygienist
I graduated as a dental hygienist from Lamar University in 1994 with great expectations of making a difference. Everyday I strive to work alongside my patients to help them achieve a healthy and confident smile, together we make a difference. I have been a part of the Family Dental Care team since 2006 and have developed wonderful relationships with my patients. By attending classes and seminars I stay informed and educated about the latest dental treatments and products to ensure the best care for my patients.
I love the outdoors! Most weekends you can find me in my backyard either gardening or swimming with my dog “Zoey'. My husband and I enjoy traveling in our camper, our favorite destination is Branson, Missouri. I stay healthy and fit with my own home cooking and yoga. As a member of Praise church, I have dedicated my life to God.
