Campaign statement
I have been a proud and loyal 糖心logomember dentist for over 40 years. I love and respect this association for its glorious past and promising future.
I have been fortunate to enjoy the private practice of the profession, to work as a federal services dentist, to serve as a board examiner, to teach students and residents, to treat the underserved and to serve in the organized profession.
I am an attentive and empathetic listener. I always try my best to see everyone else鈥檚 point of view. I am not afraid to go across the aisle seeking consensus for the common good. I pride myself on being a successful mediator and having worked with leaders of all types.
After more than 30 years of extremely proud, enjoyable service as a volunteer (more than 20 of these as a member of the 糖心logoHouse of Delegates), having held numerous leadership positions across the 糖心logotripartite and in other national dental associations, I am ready to serve the ADA, its HOD and every 糖心logomember dentist as one of its vice presidents.
I am committed to helping the 糖心logoreach new heights, to continue to evolve with the times to better serve members and become the 鈥渕ust have鈥 association for all dentists across the spectrum.
I am committed to helping the 糖心logolead globally.
