Lyon Street Fax: 714.547.0167 Santa Ana, CA. 92705 Office Email: sspeedy112@earthlink.net Personal Email: pk.sirspeedy@earthlink.rnet Patrick was born in Bellflower, California in 1964 to a Dutch couple, Betty and Bob Korthuis. Mr. and Mrs. ICorthuis arrived in the USA a few years before Patrick was boar. He considers it a blessing to be able to be raised knowing two different cultures, the Dutch and the American culture. Patrick has an older brother, Edward and a younger sister Yvonne. Patrick was very fortunate to have been able to go to Holland several times during his youth and spend time with his Dutch relatives. The visits to Holland and the influence of his parents gave Patrick the opportunity to learn Dutch. Patrick learned the value of entrepreneurship at the age of nine when he acquired his own newspaper route, delivering for the Harold Examiner, and then moved to the Independent Press Telegram. He graduated from Gahr High School in Cerritos. He was accepted at Universal Technical Institute, where he graduated with a Diesel Mechanic degree. He worked as a Mechanic for 18 years before he and his wife decided to venture into having their own business. After some research they bought a Sir Speedy Printing. They have had their business since 1999. In 2006 they were able to purchase a building for the business which allows there to continue to grow. The business has been in Santa Ana since 1974 and at the same location until they recently moved into their new facility at 1540 S. Lyon Street in Santa Ana. Patrick is a member of the Santa Ana Chamber and Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and is past President the Santa Ana Kiwanis club. In his free time he enjoys working in the garden. His hobbies are motorcycle riding, water skiing, and snow skiing. His dream would be to one day drive a race car. Patrick has been blessed with three boys, Brandon 19, Jason 18 and Nathaniel 6wks. Brandon is in his second year of college attending LBSU and plans to attend Chiropractic College. Jason is a senior in High School and would like to be an Anesthesiologist. The youngest is Nathaniel and we don't know what he wants to be because he is only 6 weeks old and doing great. Patrick and Christy have been married for nine years and enjoy traveling, camping, golfing and walking in their neighborhood after dinner. 13B-7 13B-8 ,/ L I N 48 San Sebastian Rancho Santa Margarita, CA 92686 (949} 375-3434 E-maik t3ot)uAinta)MSCSC.org OBJECTIVE: UTILIZE '{Y EXPERIENCE.

My primary interest in the area of community service and education, as evidenced by my past employment and volunteer work, is to better improve the community. Enclosed is my resume for your review. I would be honored to receive your consideration. Before attending dental school, I worked for 5 years as a dental assistant. I attended and received my dental assistant certificate and x-ray license while in high school by taking courses at the Regional Occupational Program. I learned basic techniques that allowed rile to work for several offices which helped me decide that dentistry was the path for me. I started from the most basic position in a dental office and have worked through practically all positions until I began attending USG School of Dentistry. My love of dentistry from the age of seventeen has remained the same. I love my line of work because it allows me to serve my community and bring education and health to the cities I have worked in. From my experience in dental school, I worked on sharpening my communication skills by learning how to efficiently and effectively research dental topics, analyze potential strategies, and learn clinical techniques as well as how to communicate and educate the community. My practice is patient centered; we strive to optimize patients' oral health through education and ethical moral dental practices and techniques. During my dental career I have been able to serve my community with several different organizations which allowed me to appreciate how my position could impact the community. As a result of my dental training and experiences, I possess solid clinical, writing, and educational skills which will allow me to effectively perform the work of a member on the board. I look f6tivard to hearing from you, and I hope to have the opportunity to meet with you. Sincerely, Maryam Nazeri Enclosure 13B-15 13B-16 range C o rity Labor Federation,,AFL-CIO 309 N.
