Dental Assistant

Hello, my name is Kimberly! I was born in Washington DC and raised in Maryland. I attended Prince George’s County Community College where I studied Spanish and completed my dental assisting program.

I have been working at Dr. Camps since June 2013. The best part of my day is being able to help patients and parents by educating them about dental health. Some unique traits of mine include studying Spanish at the age of 15 and I traveled to Central America where I did missionary work.

One great thing is that I am able to speak Spanish with patients and parents. Outside of work I have 3 sons that are 16, 11 and 9 and also am married. I enjoy camping, going to the beach and going to church. I am very involved with sports teams that my boys are involved in.

I look forward to meeting all of you and coming in and getting some education about keeping your teeth healthy and clean.
