Growing up in a rural community with limited dental care and experiencing the loss of a tooth at a young age, I was inspired early on to pursue dentistry. I went to Oregon State University for my degrees in BioHealth Sciences and Public Health, then completed my dental degree at OHSU.
My favorite part of the job is the long-term relationships I get to build with my patients. I love connecting with people, not only focusing on their dental health but also letting them know I’m here for them.
When I’m not at the clinic, I love cooking, hiking, mushroom foraging, and fishing.
