***Where were you at 22, and how did you get to where you are today?*** ![](https://featured-com-images.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/featured-sites/pursuethepassion.com/wp-uploads/2020/09/Henry-Babichenko.jpg)

I was a student at PCC, studying Dental Technology.

***When did you really decide to “take ownership” of your career? What inspired you to pursue your passion?***

Before attending college, I worked at a local dental laboratory where I got the passion to pursue a career in the dental industry.

***All good career stories include some aspect of “risk.” Was there a moment in your career where you felt that you were risking something, but looking back on it now, that move made all the difference?***

Deciding to open my first dental business shortly after graduation instead of joining a well established dental operation was a risk. Looking back, the risk I took was well worth the reward of creating a successful dental organization that shares my values and provides uncompromising service to our patients.

***Where do you find significance in your work? What gives you the most satisfaction?***

Being able to chew food with a healthy pair of teeth is vital to our patient’s overall health and self esteem. Working on a daily basis to help our patients restore their life, is a reward in itself.

***How do you measure success in your role? How do you know you’re succeeding?***

Keeping our patients satisfied while helping our staff stay motivated is my goal. Helping thousands of patients restore their lives, is how I measure my success.

***If you could offer your 22-year old self one piece of advice, what would you say?***

The road that leads to success if full of bumps and bruises. Be ready to face your fears and overcome.
