PRESIDENT’S CORNER
I would like to personally
welcome everyone back from a wonderful summer break. Let me first take this
opportunity to thank the past officers, especially Sandy Boucher-Bessent, RDH.
Her tireless energy and commitment to our profession have benefited all of us,
both directly and indirectly. Sandy’s leadership and dedication will continue
as she currently serves as the President of the North Carolina Dental Hygiene
Association. If you have the opportunity, please take a moment to personally
thank her for all that she has accomplished in her passion for dental hygiene.
Thanks again to everyone in our component that has served in the past and
helped make Metrolina Dental Hygiene Society (MDHS) so successful.
I have been working in the dental
hygiene field for over 16 years, as both a hygienist and as the owner of
Carolina Dental Solutions – a staffing and training company focused on dental
practices. Clinically, I have practiced
as a dental hygienist, dental assistant, and served as an office manager.
Recently, I have accepted a position with Zila Pharmaceuticals as the Territory
Representative for the Charlotte area and look forward to meeting many of you
in your offices.
The ADHA offers its members a
wide variety of benefits specifically designed to help better Empower, Support
and Develop YOU!
Last year, MDHS reported record
attendances and welcomed many new students and colleagues. We have a dynamic
schedule of speakers for the upcoming year. I challenge you to make the
commitment to support your profession and help MDHS to continue our successful
endeavors. I am honored and humbled to serve as the President of Metrolina
Dental Hygiene Society for the coming year and look forward to working with you
all.
