I have spent most of my life in dentistry. From my first Dental Assistant position to Hygiene for many gratifying years with patients. A Loyola of Chicago graduate also accelerated me to more in dental sales with pharmaceutical positions to lecture at Tufts, Harvard, Boston Univ, NYU, Columbia, U of MD, Yale, UVA and top tier dental schools in the Northeast. As we find with many of our clients in Blatchford Coaching Solutions, I found to “re-invent” my life through my career choices.
I had the fortune to meet Dr. Bill Blatchford 18 years ago while working in the MD/ DC/VA area. This led me to employment with Blatchford Solutions in the Chicago area as a Sales advisor to interview hundreds of dentists who want guidance to get to another level as they re-invent themselves and learn to continue to love their career choices within Dentistry.
I count swimming, yoga, weight training, family, traveling to Italy, Belgium, Kauai, reading biographies, and photography among my favorite hobbies. Most people are surprised that I grew up on a cattle and pig farm of 300 acres in Annawan in Western Illinois. My Mom did not want me to stay on the farm. She was telling me to go to college when I was 14 years old. See the world. I follow the Chicago Bears, White Sox and Blackhawks.
I enjoy Rock & Roll music with Beach Boys, also Bruno Mars, Lady Gaga. Harry Connick, Jr, Michael Bublé, Some jazz and classical.
Favorite movie? Under the Tuscan Sun.
My favorite restaurant anywhere in the world is Roy’s in Kauai. Italian in Sorrento (don’t remember any name of Italian in so many anywhere in Rome).
My favorite vacation spot is Kauai. Venice, Italy. Brugge, Belgium. “Find the thing that makes you passionate and do that… In the end, the things that give you the most fulfillment are the things you do for others.” from Tony Blair is the one quote I live by.
