Hi, I’m Elsie Owens, the person behind asthedrillturns.com. This blog began as a small side project in early 2025, born from my habit of researching every single thing I buy before committing to it. I wanted to create a place where those long nights of comparing specs, reading user experiences, and testing tools could actually help someone else.
How It All Started
For nearly a decade, I worked in a dental office as a coordinator and practice assistant. The name “As The Drill Turns” actually comes from that world a little nod to my old routine of buzzing drills and endless checklists.
I earned my degree in communications and spent years learning how to evaluate products from a practical, real-life point of view. Whether it was choosing the right equipment for the practice or comparing small office gadgets, I learned that marketing talk doesn’t always match real performance.
What I Do Now
Today, I live in a quiet town near Birmingham, where I run this blog full-time. I test products in my own home from small household helpers to tools and accessories that promise to “make life easier.” Every review is written after genuine use. I don’t rush opinions or copy press releases. If something works, I’ll say so. If it doesn’t, I’ll tell you why and what alternatives might be better.
Why You Can Trust This Blog
I don’t take money from brands for “positive” reviews, and I only link to products I’ve personally tried or researched in depth. Transparency matters more to me than trends or sponsorships. My goal is simple: to give you the kind of honest feedback I always wished I could find before hitting “buy now.”
If you’ve ever wanted a real person’s take before spending your money, I hope you’ll find that here. Thanks for stopping by and for trusting me to help make your next purchase a little smarter.
