Micah, Lead Dental Assistant
I am originally from the Hampton Roads area. However, I quickly fell in love with Richmond. I love to travel, camp with my three children, and cheer for the Redskins! While attending the Dental Assisting School of Virginia, I was blessed enough to complete my externship and ultimately become an employee at Bright Smiles Dental. I absolutely love assisting Dr. Gardner, and my goal is always patient comfort and fun.
