Being a dentist is an opportunity to help others. As oral healthcare providers, we are in a unique positionin that we can transform each patients life. Whether we are aesthetically enhancing a smile, relieving dental pain, or improving function, each procedure is a chance to change a persons life for the better!

I truly love making people smile. My greatest satisfaction comes when I see a genuine smile at the end of a procedure from a small filling on a front tooth to a full-mouth reconstruction and the happiness in the persons eyes.

In school, I always enjoyed my science-based classes, and that drew me toward healthcare as a profession. A family friend, a dentist, invited me to shadow him over a summer while I was in college. After I saw how he was able to help people, combining science and aesthetics, and his obvious happiness with what he did, I knew dentistry was the right path for me.

Our administrative and clerical staff members are professionals. They are also compassionate, supportive, and non-judgmental. Together, they ensure each person feels safe, heard, and supported throughout every interaction.

One of the most appealing facets of dentistry are the continual advances. New techniques and technologies are constantly developed and made available to practitioners. It is my responsibility to stay current on the new options: carefully evaluating each before determining they should be incorporated into our office.

Each year I take a range of continuing dental education courses in order to learn about new options, as well as broaden and strengthen my clinical skills. This ensures I am providing patients with the best care for their needs.

When Im not working, Im most often with my family. The activities of two young kids take up most of my time outside of the office. When I do have free time, I love to travel, be outdoors, fish with the kids, and cheer on the Kansas Jayhawks.
