I graduated from Fanshawe College from Dental Assisting in 1981, and Dental Hygiene in 1983. I work 5 days a week in a busy family practice in Waterloo. In my off time, I enjoy Junior A hockey, downhill skiing, and travelling. Some of my extended trips include 8 weeks on a kibbutz in Israel, 8 weeks in Australia and Japan, and a 4 week safari in East Africa. I have attended 2 International Dental Hygiene Symposiums-one in Sydney Australia in 2001, and one in Ottawa in 1989. I was on the WWDHS executive as treasurer from 1983-85, and have been the coordinator of the "adopt-a-road" program since 2002. If you are interested in volunteering for the "adopt-a-road" program, please come and see me at a meeting or ConEd.
