My Story
“I have been working within the dental sector for over 15 years. I began my dental career training as a dental nurse when I was 17 years old.
I absolutely loved my job, but had a passion for learning and shortly after qualifying I gained a degree in Biological and Medical sciences at the University of Liverpool.
I have since completed several qualifications including Preparing to Teach in the Lifelong Learning Sector and the National General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety.”
“I found my passion for teaching others during my time working as a tutor and now have several years experience as a practice support consultant, where I delivered a range of in-house training courses to dental professionals and provided support with all areas of compliance.
I would like to bring back the ‘personal touch’ when supporting dental practices with compliance and believe with my knowledge, skills and experience I can offer an outstanding service which takes into account your practices’ needs.”
“Keeping it simple, I am able to offer a quality training and consultancy service which is cost effective and requires minimal surgery time lost. I look forward to meeting your team!”
