Meet Gabriela Hunter Rodriguez, our D4 Erie Representative! 
“Buenas! My name is Gabriela and I was born in Panama, but grew up in the panhandle of Florida in a little town called Niceville. I am the D4 Erie representative for ASDA this year. I went to USF Tampa (Go Bulls 🤘🏼) and majored in Biomedical Sciences with a minor in Psychology. I love ALL things ASDA, the fever is REALLLL. I'm on National and District 5 ASDA and it's beyond fun. Also, I enjoy spending time with my pup, enjoying good food, playing video games and doing themed looks with eye makeup. Feel free to reach out to me anytime if you have any questions whether it's school or leadership related, I'll try to answer to the best of my ability!”

If you were one dental instrument, which one would you be?
I would be an amalgamator because I am reliable and consistent with all things I mix my energy into. Plus, I enjoy shaking things up and can be very lively.

Meet Chonnalin Sumonthee! Our 2024-2025 LECOM ASDA Membership Coordinator!
“Hi everyone! I’m Chonnalin and I’m a born and raised South Florida native. Growing up around a diverse community grew my love for people, language, and culture which I do my best to spread each day. I love playing guitar, dance, being outdoors and at the beach, spending time with my cat Nala, and playing sports. My love for ASDA grew during my undergrad years at UF, where I had the honor of serving as Pre-Dental ASDA President. Between its welcoming community and volunteer and professional development events, ASDA strengthened my love for dentistry and helped me get to where I am today. I’m so grateful to have this opportunity to give back and spread the ASDA love here at LECOM as your Membership Officer.”
