Personal Biography
Welcome! We’re glad to have you at our practice. I love my job because dentistry has enabled me to meet so many different people. I’ve been privileged enough to build relationships with some pretty amazing people! The connection I make with each patient is the main reason I wanted a career in healthcare. I have learned so many interesting things while getting to know my patients’ careers and lives. I can honestly say that I learn something new every day I’m at the office!
I also currently take numerous continued education courses throughout the year, including Invisalign, cosmetic dentistry, and other aspects of dentistry. I choose to participate because I feel it is important to provide my patients multiple and up-to-date treatment options.
I truly love living in DC! Our community is a true American melting pot, and I always strive to help our neighbors most in need. I have participated in the Mission of Mercy: an annual three-day event providing dental care to the uninsured and underprivileged held by the Northern Virginia Dental Society. I have also served four years as an Adjunct Professor in Northern Virginia Community College’s Dental Hygiene Program.
I would like to leave you with a simple bit of dental advice: Have floss on the coffee table, and use it while you’re watching TV—it seems less of a chore that way!
