2023 Scholarship Recipient
Brian Garner is the 2023 Dental Scholarship recipient!
A little bit about this year's receipient:
"I grew up in Silver Spring, MD and attended undergraduate studies at University of Maryland, College Park. I was raised bilingual, and from an early age developed a dedication to serving the Hispanic community. As I transitioned during college into the beginnings of my dental career, I continued on that dedication and sought out as many Missions of Mercy to participate in as possible. My other career passions include the study of dental sleep medicine and airway health, and hobbies such as soccer, volleyball, and cooking. Above all I hope to be able to leave a lasting impact on my community."
