About Me

Biography / Background

Hello! My name is Jeremiah Warren. I am a rising second-year dental student at Meharry Medical College School of Dentistry in Nashville, Tennessee.  I was born and raised in Orlando, Florida. Applying to dental school; without having any friends or family in the dental profession to guide me, was scary. I had to figure it all out by myself, like the majority of pre-dents.

I decided to dedicate some of that time to help out those who needed it. Knowing I was making a direct impact on people’s futures meant the world to me. After meeting with 100+ students, a good friend of mine put me in touch with Dr.Bruce from FutureDMD, and the rest was history.  With the firsthand experiences I have been through and the knowledge I have obtained after completing my first year of dental school, along with the help of FutureDMD, I now can reach and help students on a global scale.

I was exposed to numerous things about the entire
dental school application process that I wasn’t
aware about before!
