My Story
Welcome, and thank you for visiting our website.
I’m so glad you’re here and taking the time to learn more about our practice and how we may be the right fit for your dental care.
I’m a native Houstonian and a proud graduate of the University of Houston. I then spent a few years in Dallas, where I earned my dental degree from the Baylor College of Dentistry in 2008, now part of the Texas A&M Health Science Center.
After returning home to Houston, I continued to refine my skills through extensive postgraduate training before opening my private practice in 2012.
From a young age, I was always drawn to smiles—I noticed them, studied them, and couldn’t wait for my own orthodontic treatment. Like many patients, I once felt self-conscious about my smile. Braces truly changed my life and gave me a new sense of confidence.
That personal experience is what led me to dentistry. Today, it’s incredibly rewarding to help my patients feel confident, comfortable, and proud of their smiles. With advancements in modern dentistry and evolving technology, we’re able to provide care that is both precise and personalized.
I’ve thoughtfully created this practice to feel warm, welcoming, and non-clinical—where patients feel genuinely cared for, heard, and never rushed. My goal is simple: to treat every patient the way I would want to be treated.
Take a look around, and see if we feel like the right fit for you. We would truly love to welcome you to our practice.
