As a life-long resident of Skagit and Whatcom Counties, I have been honored to provide oral health care to our community for almost 30 years. I enjoy educating children and their families on the importance of preventative dental care. I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Biology from Western Washington University and graduated with my DDS degree from Creighton University School of Dentistry in 1997.
Over the years as Dental Director, I led the expansion of Unity Care dental from a small 6 operatory clinic to a multi-site dental department that serves thousands of patients in our community annually. I oversee a dedicated team with a focus on preventative, restorative and urgent care, along with community outreach through our mobile dentistry program. I believe in creating a patient centered dental clinic that fosters a culture of respect and compassion. Beyond clinical dentistry, I enjoy mentoring the next generation of community health dental professionals.
In my free time, I enjoy photography, gardening and paddleboarding.
