Verneal was born and raised in Williamsport, PA, home of the Little League World Series Baseball. Her hometown was also known as the lumber capital of the world in the late 1800s. At that time, it had the most millionaires per capita than anywhere else in the U.S. Many of the mansions are still standing and are located along the town’s main street, called Millionaires’ Row.
Verneal attended Williamsport Area High School and graduated in 1989. The Osler Dental Professional’s office manager was a two-time State Track Champion (1986 and 1987) and a soloist in the Marching Millionaires band the year they won the East Coast Championships. After high school, Verneal attended a local community college for about a year and then enlisted in the United States Air Force.
She attended the Air Force Dental Assisting School at Sheppard AFB in Wichita Falls, TX and graduated in the top 5 in her class. Her favorite part of a patient’s visit is engaging with them to help them understand the value of what the dental team does and the benefits of a healthy smile. It’s rewarding to Verneal when patients feel comfortable in the dental office and when they choose Osler Dental Professionals as their dental home. Many patients have been with the practice for 40+ years!
When she’s not helping patients, Verneal loves spending time with her daughter, husband, family, and friends. She also enjoys doing DIY home projects, home organizing, and watching and attending sports events. She’s also a huge fan of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul!
