He has two Border Terriers that also know that the beach is where to relax and play. City life is also great for John, but after living and working in Arizona as a dental assistant, he decided to further his l career by enrolling in the Forsyth Dental Hygiene Program in Boston at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.
