In her free time she likes spending time with her three kids, cooking, baking, and watching movies. Her favorite thing to cook is pho. Ask her about her recipe!

Gina
Registered dental assistant. I’ve been in the dental field for over two years and I can honestly say I love my job. I like to make sure our patients are comfortable and relaxed. Their care and comfort are very important to me. What I love the most is seeing how happy our patients are after having treatments be it small or major. Their joy gives me joy and that’s why I love what I do.
In my spare time I love spending time with my wonderful husband and our three kids. I love to cook, being half Korean I cook a lot of Korean/Asian food but my other favorites are Italian and Soul food. I hope to meet you soon.
