Dentistry wasn’t always the plan—but somewhere between my mom’s dental challenges and a growing fascination with all things smile-related, I knew I’d found my calling. Helping people feel confident, healthy, and genuinely happy with their smiles? There’s nothing more rewarding!
My approach to care is simple: compassionate, conservative, and comprehensive. I’m here to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and never rushed. Every smile is different, and I’m passionate about tailoring care that fits your life—not just your teeth.
The absolute best part of my day? Connecting with patients. I love hearing your stories, learning about your lives, and making your time in the chair feel easy and even enjoyable. Whether we’re chatting about your favorite latte or your latest travel adventure, it’s these connections that make my work so fulfilling.
Yes, I have a sweet tooth—and yes, I floss! I also start most days with a Vanilla or Pumpkin Spice Latte (loyal to the season!), and I believe that a little caffeine and a lot of passion go a long way.
Outside the office, I’m usually exploring mountain trails, trying out new recipes, diving into a good book, or enjoying cozy movie nights with my family. My son’s smile and hugs? They’re the heart of my day and my biggest motivation.
Right now, I’m especially excited about growing as a clinician and expanding what I can offer to my patients. I love staying on top of the latest techniques and tools to bring you the best care possible. Whether you’re here for a routine visit or dreaming of a brand-new smile, I can’t wait to meet you—and help you feel proud to show off yours.
I look forward to seeing you at Avalon Dental!
