About Me
Hello, My name is Carlos Puertas. I was born in Venezuela and moved to Florida where I reside currently. As an immigrant, my family and I had to face some challenging obstacles. Overall we had overcome them. I have worked since I was 15 years old while helping my family in our new home and adventure.
I remember my first job, as I unloaded bales of hay from an 18 wheeler to an outbuilding in Davie, Fl. I always loved animals and horses. It reminds me of my grandfather and the deep connection he had with his horses at our stables back in my country of origin.
After many jobs, I finally found something I have grown to love. Especially been capable of educating patients about oral health, an immense joy fills me to bring a smile back to them. I cant wait to see what else this ever-changing career has in store for me as I grow and learn every day.
