Hi there! My name is Whitney, and I am a mother of two, working on my undergrad in biomedical science at UWM. I’ve worked in dentistry for ten years as a lab technician and dental assistant. My true passion in life is helping to improve the lives of others, this is why I fell in love with dentistry and hope to apply at Marquette Dental School in the near future. I find the greatest reward in being able to improve the health, confidence, and happiness of my patients. Although I obsessively live and breathe dentistry- I can also be found drinking eight shots of espresso a day, spending time with my family, being outdoors, or practicing hot yoga. I also volunteer with numerous autism programs when my busy life allows for it. I’m so excited to see how I can further help improve the lives of others through this cancer search cancer research opportunity!
