Brooklin – Dental Assistant

Hello, My name is Brooklin Riggs. I was born and raised on a farm in Chandler, AZ. My family is extremely tall, in fact, my dad is 6-7 and my mom was 6-1. Since I was tall growing up I was a part of a lot of sports including basketball, volleyball, and soccer. Later in my high school years, my family relocated to a small town, Casa Grande, AZ. While we lived in Casa Grande I attended a small community college (Central Arizona College) where I worked on my American Sign Language and General Studies. I later graduated High School early so I could attend BYU Idaho. Like many college students, I studied many different careers to find the one I enjoyed. During this time I focused on my family and building management skills while working for Target. A couple years later I met my husband Mikel. After a couple years of dating, I relocated to Winslow to be closer to him. We now have our own home and two cats we call our furbabies. I started my career at Winslow Dental in 2017 and have loved it ever since. I work with an amazing staff that allows me to learn new things every day. I love working with my hands and being able to help assist both Dr. Gardner and Hygienist Jenn. I love that our office works hard to keep our patients smiling. I have really enjoyed working with a staff that has the patient’s best interest in mind. I enjoy working with kids of all ages and making sure they feel comfortable during their visit. I am grateful for the opportunity to keep our patients smiling.
