Why did you become a dentist?
I wanted to become a dentist ever since I was a child. Due to my mother being a dental hygienist I used to go into work with her and shadow the dentist. I developed a passion for helping people which I carried throughout my life. I always knew I wanted to pursue a career in healthcare and dentistry allowed me to do so.
What do you like most about dentistry?
The most satisfying part of dentistry to me is a patient who comes in and the first thing they say is “I hate the dentist” or “I am so nervous about being here” and then they leave with a smile on their face and are excited to return. I enjoy motivating patients and giving them the best experience possible!
How do you spend your free time?
I enjoy spending time with my family and my niece who just turned 1 years old! I enjoy traveling and have been to over 15 countries and always want to explore more. I also enjoy hiking and cooking.
