General Info

About me

Ever since I was a child I was always impressed by the neatness, order and safety that my dentist provided. Afterwards, as time passed by, I became enamored with the idea of working in health services. I would not change a thing!


My dental profession, but particularly my surgical specialty, continues to stimulate my learning in science and technology.
