Myndi Ruiz
dental assistant
My name is Myndi Ruiz, I am a proud mother of two amazing boys and it is undoubtedly a constant source of joy and inspiration. Beyond motherhood, I've dedicated the last 14 years to the dental field, a career path that continues to fulfill me deeply.
The simple act of seeing a patient's face light up with a genuine smile is incredibly gratifying – it's the heart of what motivates me every day.
My professional life is balanced by a passion for quieter pursuits. In my downtime, I find solace and creativity in the world of vinyl records, working on art and or home projects.
These activities provide a cozy atmosphere
I'm always eager to learn new things and embrace new challenges both personally and professionally.
