My approach to care

My approach to care is centered around minimally invasive dentistry, focusing on prevention and conserving healthy tooth structure. I enjoy empowering patients with the knowledge needed to be able to take charge of their own oral health.

Why I went into healthcare

I became a dentist to help improve access to dental care and to make a difference in people’s lives.

Something you might not know about me
