Anna Smith grew up in rural east Texas.  Her father was a preacher and her mom was a bookkeeper.  She was always very active in her church and organizations like Girl Scouts and 4H.  Her parents encouraged her to study and make good grades.  Anna always enjoyed school and excelled in every subject, except spelling.  Anna especially loved science and dreamed of becoming a veterinarian.  However, that all changed when she observed a veterinarian over spring break in high school.  She didn’t have the heart to watch animals being put to sleep and began seeking a profession to better suit her personality.  She decided that dentistry would be a good match.  The more she learned about dentistry the more she became attracted to the field.
