Krysti’s been a hygienist with us since June 2004. We recently asked her a few questions and here are her answers. 🙂
AHD: What do you like to do when you’re not with your work family?
Krysti: I enjoy watching my boys’ sporting events and spending time with family and friends. I love going for walks and going camping. Nothing beats a Michigan summer!
AHD: If you won the lottery, what would you do?
Krysti: If I were to win the lottery, I would first go on vacation and soak up some sun and relax. We don’t get a lot of that this time of year in Michigan. After that, I would help people with dental needs. It’s so important to have dental care for overall health.
AHD: If you could have a superpower, what would it be?
Krysti: I would love to time travel. I am an old soul at heart and would love to visit the past. I love talking with patients about how they grew up in different times and find it all so fascinating.
AHD: We love that you keep bringing up the dental world in all your answers!
Krysti: I am so grateful to be part of AHD. Looking back, I love the fact that I have been able to call this home for over 20 years. I love how much I have grown as a hygienist and have made many great friends and met so many amazing patients throughout my journey. I love that my coworkers are like family and really enjoy helping patients achieve great dental health. I look forward to seeing my patients and hearing what has been happening in their lives. I enjoy all of the great stories I have heard throughout the years. We have such a strong, fun, and dedicated team. I want every patient to feel comfortable.
AHD: What’s the best piece of advice you’ve received?
Krysti: Don’t wish time away. Years ago, when my 3 boys were all young, I remember thinking the days were so long. Someone said: Don’t blink, time goes too fast. But I blinked, and now my boys are 16, 18, and 22. I try to always live in the moment and enjoy each day as it comes. Every day is truly a blessing.
