Meet Our Doctor

It has always been my belief that outstanding patient care is a combination of quality work and an excellent patient experience. It is my constant goal to provide both of these to my patients, and deliver gentle and effective orthodontic care in a fun and friendly environment.

I love creating smiles and, as a result, helping each of my wonderful patients improve their self-esteem and self-confidence. Being an orthodontist is incredibly rewarding: not only am I able to help people have better lives, but every day I get to have amazing conversations with my patients. I look forward to hearing about what’s happening in their lives and sharing in their excitement when they have something big planned. I’m also humbled when they choose to confide in me, because they need someone to talk with and they trust me. Those one-on-one connections make me smile.
