Carla began her career in dentistry while in high school, starting as a dental assistant, and then working to become a Registered Dental Assistant in 1999. She enjoyed the dental field so much, that she decided to pursue dental hygiene, earning her degree in Dental Hygiene in 2009.

Carla loves being a dental hygienist because she enjoys having a one-on-one relationship with her patients in helping them to have healthy mouths and be confident with their smiles.

When not at work, Carla enjoys walking, hiking, going on vacations, and going to the gym. Carla has a daughter in college who wants to study zoology, and together they have three dogs and a cat. If it were up to Carla’s daughter, they would have a farm!
