Carolina, Dental Assistant
I was born and raised in Cali, Colombia. I graduated as a general Dentist in 2014. I came to Canada 5 years ago, in 2017, with the hope of finding new opportunities and to explore a new culture and language. Living here makes me feel grateful and blessed. I finished my certification at George Brown college in 2018, since then I have worked as a dental assistant in Ontario, Canada in cities like Mississauga, Brampton, Kitchener, Burlington, and Guelph. During this time I have gained new skills and have taken care of diverse dental treatments and procedures. Besides the work I have realized that interacting with patients and sharing our life experiences is gratifying. I consider myself as a proactive dedicated and disciplined person. I enjoy spending time with my husband and our african parrot named Mishu. My hobbies are working out, listening to music, and hiking, drawing.
