Education is extremely important to me. I grew up being constantly pushed to strive in academics. I enjoyed excelling in my education and I believe
I succeeded, due to the fact that I was in the top ten students in my high school for all four years. I plan on continuing my educational success at Texas Tech University. I have wanted to be enrolled in

I enjoy having healthy teeth and gums, and I would love for everyone else around me to have healthy teeth and gums. I have been interested in dentistry from a very young age. I remember being exhilarated to go to the dentist and have my teeth worked on or my gums poked.
I loved the feeling and the atmosphere of the dentist office and the idea of dentistry in general. As I got older I discovered that I needed braces, and in the beginning I was not too thrilled to have my teeth locked up for three years, but eventually I learned to accept my braces and embrace them. After I got my braces off I noticed how confident have straight teeth made me. I could smile with confidence and not have to worry about anybody judging the metal in my mouth.
I want to be able to instill the same confidence in all of my patients.
I want people to smile at themselves in the mirror and feel happy about the way they look. I am planning to pursue this career, because it has always been my dream. It may be a lot of hard work, but I will pull through and enjoy doing what I love.
