Personal Quote:

"The purpose of our lives is to be Happy." -Dalai Lama

Enjoying every aspect of our lives should be the main goal in life. Loving what we do in our professions is the key to success.

Patient Impact:

Many patients come with sad stories and might be going through difficult times. One patient I will never forget is Richard. He had recently lost his wife. He was always dreaming of having a new smile and for years had always taken care of everyone else's needs but his. He was not missing teeth, but always had big gaps and severe enamel wear, making him hide his smile with a big mustache. We made some veneers and crowns for him and gave him a NightGuard. After his treatment was done, I've been able to see him over the years for recalls. His life improved immensely, a new girlfriend is in the picture and his smile reflects his new found happiness.

Teeth don't only impact physical health. They can boost self-esteem and help you build relationships.

Hobbies:

Spending time with family, bicycling, making puzzles.

Sports:

Big soccer fan; follows US Women's National Team.
