Along with the knowledge in Dentistry, I have Continuing Education in <br />nutrition, and have worked to promote healthy lifestyles in the community. I have worked with patients one on one for over 40 <br />years, developing listening skills, trust, patience, integrity, compassion and friendships. I take great pride in being an honest, <br />hardworking and a reliable person. I believe these same skills would be valuable to any council member to solve the needs of <br />the City and St. Anthony citizens which come before the council. <br />How does your background add value to your role as a council member? <br />Besides my role as a clinician in our Dental Practice, (in which my husband and I built from the ground up), I am also the <br />Office Manager. I know the value of treating employees well, some having been with us for 20 to 30 years. I have had to <br />research and solve business issues that arise, including always being fiscally responsible. <br />My background in living here for over 55 years, gives me the historical perspective of how St. Anthony has grown to be the <br />desirable place it is today. The location, sense of community and small town feeling is what has drawn people to move and <br />remain here, and that is our core strength.
