As a five-year-old, my mother would take me to art galleries with my drawing pad and colored pencils to recreate the great works of Monet and Picasso. As a teen, I created string-work bracelets and 3D bead-animal keychains. As a Studio-Art minor in college, I was able to apply my manual finesse to acrylic painting and charcoal drawing. As a professional, I am now able to channel my dexterity into precision dentistry: when a millimeter is a mile, there is no room for inaccuracy-- I've been training for this my entire life!
