MEET AMY

EMP LOY E E SPOT L I GHT

I’m Amy! I was with Denton ISD for the past 10 years working in the special education department. It was an extremely fulfilling and rewarding job because of all the bonds I developed with students, teachers, and administrators. It also allowed me to stay connected with my own girls as they went through school! Whether it was being a stay-at-home mom, or at band, choir, sports, cheerleading, academics, or booster club, I was there to guide them. Now young women, Sydney is 25 and Sammy is 21. I have been blessed with beautiful, loving, giving human beings. I have also been blessed with an amazing son-in-law, Zach. And the icing on the cake is my grandchildren: Jonah, 1 and a half, and Roslyn, 3 months. I have been graced with so much, and I am so grateful! I love to give of myself with a warm smile, a helping hand, and a word of encouragement. I look for that in the jobs I do, and I seek opportunities to make a difference in the lives of others and my community. Whether at church, work, or home, it’s important that we give our very best. Life for me

is about helping others to succeed. It’s me living out my belief. I believe I have found another place to do just that here at Dr. Thai’s office. Now, I help patients get their lives back and enjoy the little things that make life joyful for them! That is the goal here … with a lot of passion! We want you to feel cared for. It is one of the keys to getting you better. I look forward to meeting each one of you and being a part of your journey!
