"I reside In the sunny state of Florida, but I am still a native West Texan at heart. With a passion for dentistry spanning over three decades, I jotted down stories over the years that would eventually become my first novel. These stories were beautifully woven into a memoir. My story is a journey of personal growth, my own unique perspective on life. With this memoir, my aim is to inspire, educate, and connect with readers, just as I have done with my patients throughout the years. Join me on this journey, as I reflect on life's lessons learned and the ""Rule of Five."""
