At SmileSanClemente.com, we understand the importance of having a dental practice that provides you with exceptional care. Our staff is committed to serving each and every patient with attentive care and impeccable dental work. As one of our patients, you deserve nothing less.
I have been greeting patients at Smile San Clemente since 2016, as one of the first faces you see when you walk in the door. I hold a BA in English and Psychology, and fully admit I probably couldn't tell you what color your eyes are, but could describe your front teeth to you in detail. I spend my off time volunteering for the Ark of San Juan Animal Rescue as their Kitten Coordinator (ask me about fostering!), playing softball, and riding my road bike. I readily admit that some of my favorite people in the whole wide world are my fabulous co-workers and of course, Dr. M.!

My goal in the office is to make sure our patients are comfortable by helping them understand their dental benefits in relation to treatment.
