I initially qualified in Dental nursing from Cardiff Dental Hospital in 1986. I had an immediate position in Leeds School of Dentistry, qualifying as a Dental Hygienist in 1987. I have always lived in the South Wales Valleys but have had strong connections with Pembrokeshire from a very early age. In 2018 I moved to my beloved Pembrokeshire permanently, getting a hygienist position in Dew St Dental.
