Amy earned her credentials and training in dental hygiene from Rock Valley College. She’s also certified in pain management and level one laser therapy. As a registered dental hygienist, Amy spends her time at the office taking digital x-rays, screening patients’ periodontal health, cleaning teeth, and helping with pain management. Amy says she comes to work each day not feeling like she’s going to a job. Dental hygiene is truly her passion, and the bonus is how rewarding it can be to make a difference in people’s lives. Amy was honored as the “Golden Scaler” of her college graduating class. She’s enthusiastic, creative, friendly, personable, and outgoing. When it comes to her work, Amy is very meticulous. When she’s done helping patients, Amy enjoys taking care of her busy blended family, including five kids. Along with her husband (a first responder), they enjoy camping as a family, volunteering, and caring for their rescue pets.
