With over six years of experience in dental hygiene, Monica is passionate about helping patients achieve and maintain optimal oral health. Monica especially enjoys educating patients on preventive care and empowering them with the knowledge they need to feel confident in their smiles.
Monica earned her degree from Ferris State University, where she discovered her love for dental hygiene and met her husband. Originally from Saginaw, Michigan, Monica began her career in Grand Rapids, where she practiced for four years before relocating to be closer to family. I have now been in the area for two years and truly enjoy being part of this community.
Outside of the office, Monica values spending quality time with her family. Monica enjoys reading — particularly psychological thrillers and memoirs — as well as doing puzzles and crafting. At home, life is always active and fun with my young son, where we can often be found playing with monster trucks and dinosaurs, along with our two dogs who keep things lively.
