Dr. Harkin graduated Cum Laude from Franklin and Marshall College in 1999 with a major in mathematics and a minor in flute performance. In 2008, she graduated from Temple University School of Dentistry and immediately began to live her dream as a New Holland family dentist. Her value to the dental team was undeniable, as she shared her spirit for both compassion and perfection.

Dr. Harkin is an Advisor and Visiting Faculty for the LD Pankey Dental Foundation. As an Advisor, she serves the Board of Directors with a lasting commitment to upholding the mission of the Institute.
