Do you remember what it was like to treat your first patient?
BA: Even though I felt well prepared by the efforts of the faculty of the dental school, I remember being humbled by the trust my first patient placed in me. As treatment progressed and the patient was excited to see their new smile as it developed, I felt honored to play a part in that excitement.

What personal goals do you have for you or your family? Activities you share?
Honesty and focus. Life can get so busy, but we always schedule time for meals throughout the week to ensure we keep up with each other’s lives. On the weekends, we try and get outside for some fresh air and activities together.

What is your philosophy on how oral health relates to overall body health?
JP: Oral health relates to overall body health in many ways. There are links to heart health and certainly good oral health promotes health teeth that are needed for appropriate nutrition. Healthy, beautiful smiles contribute to healthy self-esteem which is extremely important.

What personal goals do you have for you or your family?
Personal goals include instilling in my kids the values of duty to God and country, healthy living, and helping others. I strive to set an example of servant leadership in anything and everything that I do. I believe these are the values that make the difference in the world around us.

Social media. Are you on it, do you like it, what are your feelings on Instagram and Facebook?
I’m on it and I like it. I probably like Instagram a little better than Facebook. Both require self-control regarding time spent on them and what is shared. Most of what I post is for me to help me document memories and the things that make me happy.
