As a child, I was heavily involved in the sport of gymnastics and spent several years training with the Olympic Coach, Bela Karolyi.  I was a member of the United States Gymnastics Team and competed internationally in meets held in France and South Africa.

Following my graduating college in Reno, NV, I attended the University of Iowa College of Dentistry, where I also earned my Certificate in Pediatric Dentistry.

Our Practice

We are caring and committed professionals who enjoy the adventure and rewards of treating child patients.  Along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, we support the idea of establishing a dental home at a young age and recommend an initial visit at approximately age one.  In other words, if parents of infants and toddlers ask how old a child must be before they see a dentist, you can encourage them to call us for an appointment.
