Dentist
about me
After going through extensive dental work myself, I knew that becoming a dentist was what I wanted to do. I've loved helping people feel more confident about their smiles. Outside the office, you'll usually find me on the tennis court, exploring new places, or relaxing with my pets.
Favorites
My favorite book is the Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, and my favorite TV show is The Great British Bake Off. I love traveling and take any opportunity to go somewhere I've never visited before.
