Eric's journey
My name is Eric Gimon, I'm originally from Pittsburgh, PA. and I'm the "Penn" in Penn-Tex. My Journey to being a lab owner started in 1995. I attended a dental laboratory technology program and began to dream of having my own dental lab.
After the program, I went on to work in dental labs big and small. I guess you could say I worked my way up through the ranks. I've been on a team of technicians, a single in office onsite lab technician, manager of a 40 person processing lab and a member of a team of regional managers with territories in the Northeast and Midwest. In addition to the experience and knowledge I gained, during this journey I met my wife and lab partner Nicole. -My favorite place to be, other than the lab is the deer lease or just outdoors in general, also if you throw in some good live music I am a happy camper........unless the Steelers or Aggies are playing, then that's where you can find me.

Nicole's journey
My name is Nicole Gimon, I'm originally from Rockdale, TX. and I'm the "Tex" in Penn-Tex.
My journey to being a lab owner started in 1998. I attended a dental assisting program in Austin, TX. and while in the program, I learned about other avenues I could pursue in the dental field that would utilize what I had learned. I have much respect for the job that dental assistants do, but the artistic side of me was drawn to dental laboratory technology. I've worked in small commercial labs, large corporate labs, been an in office onsite technician and a traveling technician when it was needed. To see the impact of a job well done resulting in a smile someone can be proud of is something I will never forget and has made this journey sooo worth it. Plus, along the way, I met the love of my life, Eric and began dreaming of my very own lab. -My favorite place to be, (other than the lab, the deer lease, watching live music or watching the Steelers with Eric) is in the passenger seat while he is driving us on a day trip to a restaurant or winery we've never been to. Adventure!
