Vanessa was born in St. John's, but grew up on the west coast of Newfoundland. She studied Dental Assisting II at Keyin College, and started her career with Dental Care 101 for a maternity leave placement. She enjoys working here so much, she did not hesitate to return when another position became available. When not in the office, Vanessa can be found on a trail with her dog, Meeko, or working on a DIY project.
