Candidate Kimberly Sampson (Senate District 20) has a remarkable record of education and community service that includes:
Education: Associate degree in dental hygiene from UNE; a bachelor’s degree in communications from USM; and a juris doctor from University of Maine School of Law.
Teaching: Adjunct clinical dental hygiene professor at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Science; and adjunct clinical dental hygiene instructor at UNE’s Dental Hygiene Department.
Training: Legal and public policy externship (Maine Medical Association); and student attorney at the University of Maine Law School, Cumberland Legal Aid Clinic.
Professional: She provided dental hygiene to pediatric, special needs and autistic populations and oversaw the opening of a dental clinic in Teacapan, Mexico.

Just imagine what she will do for Maine once elected in November 2016.
