I have been with Dr. Beckel since 1985. I started as his assistant, then finished the Dental Hygiene program at UTHSC in 1997. I enjoy cleaning teeth and educating patients on good dental hygiene habits. I enjoy my work and find it very fulfilling. I am happily married and have two extraordinary children. When I'm not cleaning teeth I enjoy baking, scrap booking and spending time with my family.
I look forward to helping you maintain a healthy smile!
