Work Experience
I currently work as a dental assistant for Dr. John Regis DDS. During college, I worked as a finance lead for University Recreation at UDM. Previously, I have worked at Bed Bath & Beyond as a cashier and Real Estate One as a receptionist.
University Recreation
At University Recreation, I was able to improve my communication skills by being more involved in student life at UDM. I was also able to build on my adaptability as I was stationed at three different places on the job: front desk greeter, Tommy's barista, and upstairs fitness desk. The first day on the job as a Tommy's barista, I made 20 smoothies back-to-back and was able to adapt to the situation by making double of one type of a smoothie if one flavor was ordered more than once. I was also able to remember all the orders. Another opportunity I have had at University Recreation is to take leadership roles. One of my roles was to organize a euchre tournament. I made the event fun for UDM students by having prizes and music playing. I also took leadership roles through being the adventure series lead and presently as the finance lead. I was honored to be Employee of the Month in February of 2020. I was able to show my work ethic as I stay diligent with my work and am always willing to go above and beyond to help make the patrons feel welcome in the facility. A new student came into the building and was confused about the layout and what University Recreation had to offer, so I offered to give them a tour. I was then able to explain everything that the facility had with visuals. |
Dr. John Regis DDS
I started out by helping assist with patients by suctioning and cleaning the rooms afterwards. After I got the hang of my position as a dental assistant and my passion for Dentistry grew, I started to also learn about the business side of Dentistry. I learned about the ever changing world of insurance and also how to process payments. By helping and learned about the front office, this allowed the receptionist to leave early on Wednesday nights as I am able to work the front and the back of the office.
