Who knew a degree in video production would lead to a career in the dental field???I went to school to become a dental hygienist so I could earn enough money to open a video production company. But, low and behold - the first office I worked in as a hygienist chose to offer same day crowns. The CAD/CAM dentistry spoke to my creative side, while the love of science and educating others allows me to serve patients' needs within the dental field. It was the perfect mix! I decided to pursue becoming a CAD/CAM trainer which took me places that were never in my plans - funny how life does that!I have since proudly served as a Lead Restorative Designer for a Prosthodontist, CAD/CAM Trainer for E4D Technologies, Associate Professor at the University of Detroit Mercy Dental School's CAD/CAM Clinic, Training Manager for PlanmecaUSA, Senior Manager of Customer Training for PlanmecaUSA, and most recently was the Director of Education at orthobrain® where I had the opportunity to expand my e-learning development knowledge and abilities as well as develop a simplified, yet robust, Education Strategy from the ground up! As I trained and coached new hires in the Sales Department at Planmeca, I was often asked why I didn't go into sales because I would do a great job. Education is my passion... and it hadn't occurred to me that the best sales people are simply EDUCATING the customers on various products who then make the decision to purchase or not purchase. That being said, I am very grateful for the opportunity to represent Engle Dental as their Midwest Territory Sales Manager.The best educators/sales representatives are the ones who are passionate about what they do and more importantly WHY they do it!Life's a Dance - you learn as you go!! Don't ever stop learning new things!
