  • Houston, TX (1888PressRelease) November 03, 2012 - Shirley Ann Cross, Dental Health Instructor at Houston Community College, has been selected as a VIP Member of the Covington Who's Who Executive and Professional Registry. The selection recognizes Shirley Ann Cross's commitment to excellence in Higher Education.

    Cross, who holds a Bachelor's Degree in Dental Hygiene through Baylor Dental College, is a licensed dental hygienist and is certified in local anesthesia through the Oklahoma and Alaska Dental Boards. She began working in the field as a hygienist in 1969 and continued on for forty-four years before retiring in 2012. She was also a clinical instructor at a local dental hygiene school in Oklahoma City before teaching at Houston Community College.

    Now teaching at the university level, Cross provides quality continued education programs to dental assistants and dental hygienists. She lectures alongside a co-leader, oversees clinical work at Coleman College, and goes to private dental offices to train students. She also stays abreast of all areas of dental hygiene and continued education to maintain her license.

    Inspired by a fellow student to pursue dental hygiene, Cross has learned from some of the very best dentists in Oklahoma, Texas, and Alaska. She has always had a passion for providing the best dental hygiene possible, and hopes to continue teaching and mentoring students in the field.

    "I feel like God had me at the right place at the right time, and everything fell into place after that," Cross said about her career choice.

    Cross served as president of Oklahoma Dental Hygienist's Association from 1972-73 and served as Hospitality Chairman of the Greater Houston Dental Hygienist's Society in 2004. She has been a Court Appointed Special Advocate for children of child abuse and neglect in Oklahoma, Texas, and Alaska. Cross won Volunteer of the Year for Ft.
