This guy
Why Did You Want to Become a Dentist?
“I was very good at building and fixing things when I was about 10 years old. My mom wanted me to be a veterinarian, so I attended Northside Health Careers High School. As the years went by, I frequently made things out of wood in my free time, and I liked that dentistry would give me the chance to work with my hands every day. My next-door neighbor was like a grandma to me, and her son was a dentist, and she was the one who encouraged me to pursue dentistry.”
