FEATURED ALUMNI

I knew I wanted to eventually expand my career in dental hygiene beyond clinical practice and U-M was the best choice to accomplish this goal.

Jamie Lipiec, RDH, BSDH

Upon graduating from the University of Michigan in 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in Dental Hygiene, Jamie immediately began working in private practice at a general dental office for the first several years of her career.

Then she focused on another goal – expanding beyond clinical practice to pursue a position as an educator. She says her time at U-M helped prepare and motivate her to keep expanding her knowledge base and moving forward in the field. She has reduced her hours working as a clinician in private practice and is now a dental instructor for the Southeast Michigan Technical Education Consortium, or SMTEC, a vocational high school program.

In her new role, Jamie teaches students from four high schools who are interested in a career in dentistry. Jamie created and is refining a curriculum that introduces the students to Head and Neck Anatomy, Dental Charting, Disinfection/Sterilization, Oral Anatomy, Dental Instruments and Materials, and Dental Emergencies. This curriculum has allowed her students to get a taste of the world of dentistry before beginning their college journey.

We applaud Jamie’s dedication to dental hygiene and her efforts directing young men and women into the field of dentistry.
