Diana
Dental Hygienist
I’m a dedicated dental hygienist with a unique and diverse background. I attended Carrington College, where I received my formal training in dental hygiene. Before transitioning into the dental field, I spent 20 years in the corporate world, gaining valuable experience in communication, problem-solving, and leadership. Additionally, I worked for 10 years in the airline industry, balancing two jobs for a decade—this experience taught me the importance of time management, multitasking, and customer service.
I’ve always had a passion for helping people, and my journey has been driven by the desire to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others. Whether at Costco or in the dental office, I’ve always focused on making positive impacts, and now, as a dental hygienist, I’m able to do so directly by improving patients’ oral health and overall well-being.
In addition to my work in dental hygiene, I’m in the process of starting a charity called Eleni’s Promise focused on assisting individuals with dental expenses as well as improving connection with other humans. It’s important to me to make dental care accessible to everyone, regardless of their financial situation, and I’m excited about the change this initiative can bring to our community. Every day, I’m inspired to change the world one smile at a time, and I’m committed to continuing my mission of service and care.
