Vlogger and second-year dental hygiene student Michael shares his experience leading up to dental hygiene school as he finishes the last semester in his dual-degree program! He talks about overcoming obstacles such as Hurricane Harvey and COVID-19 all while trying to get into hygiene school. Despite Michael's imperfect GPA and lack of dental experience, he still managed to get accepted into a DH program on his first try! We discuss his YouTube journey (The Dental Queer-gienist), paying for school, interview tips, and long-term career goals. Tune in to hear Michael's journey on adding "RDH" to his name!
