I was born and raised in Belle Mead, New Jersey and moved to Idaho in 2012 after being severely affected by Hurricane Sandy. I started my career in Dentistry at the age of 16 as a Dental Assistant, progressing to a Registered Dental Assistant and eventually to Management. I graduated from Union County College in New Jersey with a degree in Healthcare Business Management and Finance. I am now the President of the Boise chapter of AADOM (American Association of Dental Office Manager).

I love the Treasure Valley for all it has to offer in regards to outdoor activities and weather. When I am not working, my passion is my five dogs, two horses and riding my motorcycle. I am happily married and have a son that is attending College in South Carolina. I am looking forward to the day that he completes his studies and moves to Idaho as well.

I relocated to Idaho in January of 2016 from Santa Clarita, CA. I came to Idaho to experience a greater quality of life and enjoy the outdoors and all it has to offer. I am a Grandmother of four, and have two beautiful daughters who still reside in California, hopefully they will decide to relocate as well. I started my Dentistry career in 2011 in California, with a General Dentist whom I worked for five years. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking with my boyfriend and two dogs, Camping, floating the river and long walks on the greenbelt.

I received my Associates Degree of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene from Carrington College in December 2010 and was awarded the Hu-Freidy National Golden Scaler award for excellence in the field in dental hygiene in 2010!

I strive to be as gentle and as thorough as possible so that your hygiene appointment with me is an experience that you’ll look forward to time and time again.

In my free time I enjoy fishing, camping, and archery hunting with my husband, bill. We also enjoy cheering on BSU during football and basketball season. Go Broncos!

I have enjoyed working in dentistry for over 30 years! It is amazing to see the impact that a healthy mouth makes on the health of the entire body. My goal is to earn your trust and confidence by providing honest and competent dental care.

My husband and I like to spend time outdoors hiking and taking out recreational toys. We also cheer for our BSU Bronco teams!

I am from Honolulu, Hawaii and moved to Idaho via the Air Force in 1993 where Idaho was my families first and last base. Upon moving to Idaho, I continued to work within dentistry and attained my national certification in dental assisting along with expanded functions credentials. In 2003 I received my RDH credentials from  the Oregon Institute of Health. Since graduating I have received my licensures in Arizona, Idaho, California and Oregon. 

As for me personally, I have two wonderful “children”…actually two young adults, both of which are doing well in their university-level studies. When and if I can, flying, sailing, water sports have always been a passion for me-as well as my family-along with loving many naughty Dachshunds.

I am originally from Eastern Idaho, and have been helping make great smiles going on fifteen years now in the Treasure Valley ,since graduating from The American Institute of Health Technology.

Most of my experience has been in pediatric dentistry, and through that experience I have found that it helps me comfort even the most fearful adult patients. Along with my daughter, a husband, dog and cats ensures not one idle moment. I have a soft spot for critters from Akhal-Tekes to Akitas, fast cars, off-roading to nowhere, and finding great deals in the off-the-wall stores.

Originally from Las Vegas, I have also had the pleasure of calling both Idaho and Utah home. I was raised in Boise (go Broncos!) and post graduation moved to Salt Lake City where I lived for several years after (go Utes)!

Before dentistry stole my heart, I worked in the semiconductor industry with a focus in process engineering. My dental assisting career began in 2016. Patient comfort and satisfaction is of the utmost importance to me. Providing a gentle, at ease experience is what I strive for. Seeing smiles blossom confidently each and every day is by far the greatest reward!  

A few favorites: adventuring with my sweetheart, being a cat mama to the silliest boy, baking, interior decorating, spontaneous moments, and all things sports.
