Jennifer Scott - "Jen"Part-time Business Manager Hi! My name is Jennifer Scott, but everyone knows me as “Jen”! I have had the pleasure of working for Dr. Brenda since August of 1998. I began my career in orthodontics hoping to get experience in the dental field that I could use in Hygiene School. After working for Dr. Brenda for a short time, I realized that there was nothing in the world that I would rather do than work in the orthodontic field. Being an orthodontic assistant was challenging and very fun! Seeing patients grow-up and changing the life of so many of them was unbelievably rewarding! I soon became the Clinical Supervisor and eventually the Business Manager. I now work 1-2 days a week from home after having my first baby. I have been fortunate to have experienced having braces by Dr. Brenda. It really helped me to understand how a patient is feeling while they are in treatment. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband Jason, our daughter Sydney and our family. We love football, jet skiing and camping! I hope that treatment is as rewarding for you as it was for me! |
