As a dentist, I want to encourage my patients, and help them achieve the smiles they deserve. From talking, smiling, or eating, teeth are an essential part of your body, and I enjoy working together with my patients to provide the best treatment for them. My perspective of dentistry incorporates quality, personalized care, with lots of humor and fun in between.I received my Bachelor’s degree from Seattle University, and attended Creighton University School of Dentistry for my Doctor in Dental Surgery degree.In my free time, I enjoy anything that incorporates the outdoors. I have a boston terrier that I can’t stop talking about, and spend most of my free time with him. I also volunteer with local groups such as the Boys & Girls Club, United Way of King County, and Sunday Dinner programs that feed the homeless.I am active in the following dental organizations: Academy of General Dentistry (AGD), and American Dental Association (ADA).“I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou
