about me
I grew up north of KC outside a small town on a family farm. This led to my passion for the outdoors! After moving several times for my education, my husband and I are happy to be back in KC living the country lifestyle with our dog (Willow), cat (Frisky), and chickens!

Orthodontics isn't just about creating a perfect smile; it's about improving overall oral health and reducing long-term side effects of an improper bite! My goal is to explain areas of concern, provide options, and help you reach your smile goals.
