I am thrilled to bring my years of knowledge and experience in a way that benefits and better serves this wonderful community. As a native of Rock Hill, SC and a board-certified orthodontist who practiced there for over 35 years as a dual-trained orthodontist & pediatric dentist, I am committed to partnering with you to provide exceptional, individualized orthodontic treatment to the patients you serve.
I am passionate about community involvement, and I have served on local boards such as the American Red Cross, Piedmont Speech and Hearing Association, and York Technical College Advisory Committee. I am the past president of the South Carolina Association of Orthodontists and have served on the South Carolina State Board of Dentistry. I am a member of Oakland Avenue Presbyterian Church in Rock Hill, SC and have served as both a Deacon and Elder. I look forward to seeking out new opportunities to get involved in the Clover community, as well!
I attended Clemson University, where I received my Bachelors degree, Masters degree, and served as a commissioned officer in the United States Air Force (USAF). Following my active duty tour, I remained in the USAF Reserves and was stationed at Charleston Air Force Base (AFB) as a pilot. It was at this time that I entered The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC) School of Dentistry, where I earned my Doctor of Dental Medicine degree, followed by The Medical College of Georgia School of Dentistry, where I attained Pediatric and Orthodontic Specialty Certificates.
During my 35-year private practice career in Rock Hill, I also served as a part time associate clinical professor at both The Medical College of Georgia and The Medical University of South Carolinas Schools of Dentistry Departments of Orthodontics, where I was responsible for both orthodontic clinical patient care and classroom lecture.
At Clover Orthodontics, we are proud to serve the community as the areas first and only orthodontic specialty practice through providing beautiful, confident smiles at an affordable price point. We saw that the people of Clover had to travel some distance in order to get the specialized orthodontic treatment they deserve, and we wanted to offer a solution that would make the gift of a great smile more convenient and attainable thus, Clover Orthodontics was born!
