"I am motivated to share my personal experience with the APS, as it is the first dental society to support a path of participation and leadership for all its members. The APS views the clinician and technician as equal peers and recognizes the entire contribution required for patient treatment. In the APS, the term ?Team Approach? actually means something.
Reflecting on 22 years of membership, the APS has given me the opportunity to be myself and become an integral part of the society. Amazing meetings, professional networking and personal friendships that have endured. As a dental technician and president-elect, I invite you to join us in this prestigious and forward-thinking organization that dates back to 1928. "
