West Chester Dental Group

Over winter break, I had the opportunity of shadowing Dr. Manjula Natrajan at West Chester Dental Group. Dr. Natrajan is a general dentist, so upon arriving in the morning to shadow her, I realized that her day was filled with cleanings, root canals, and the filling of many cavities. I was privileged enough to sit in on many of these procedures, and although I was unable to participate, getting an up and close few of the processes was very interesting to watch. I also saw how Dr. Natrajan interacted with her patients and how many of them were very comfortable around her and it made me realize how I’d like to have a similar type of relationship with my patients. Shadowing Dr. Natrajan was a very good experience for me as it made me see the type of dentist I’d like to be in the future and it set a very good example of the type of dentist I will work hard to be like.

Shree-G Grocers

Shree-G Grocers is a local Asian Grocery Store and I started working there in high school. Working there helped me to develop my people and communication skills. It helped me to learn how to communicate with people when there was a slight language barrier as well because on many occasions, someone would ask me to find a product of which they only knew the name in a different language and I would have to figure out what product they were looking for. My experience there also helped me to learn the basics of inventory and how to run and handle money in a register.
