Ishani Patel

Ishani Patel is a high school student with a passion for helping others. She found inspiration for this project from the fact that her mom is a dentist. Because of her, Ishani is dedicated to pursuing a career in dentistry so she can help others while making a positive impact on their lives.After witnessing firsthand how vital dental hygienists are to patient care—and how staffing shortages are affecting practices nationwide—she launched this project to raise awareness about dental hygiene as a stable, rewarding career path. 

 

Besides her passion for dentistry, she loves to dance competitively. Ishani has been committed to dance ever since she was 4 years old and loves the idea that she is able to express her emotions on stage in front of others. Her family and friends are very important to her, and she values the support, love, and encouragement they give her every day. Ishani also loves to travel around the world and enjoys exploring new cultures and food. She strives to approach everything she does with dedication, compassion, and enthusiasm.Ishani hopes to help more students discover opportunities in the field and protect the future of dental care for everyone.
