Additional Information
My ultimate career objective is to ensure that each patient I see has a memorable experience and looks forward to coming to the orthodontist. Although braces are not generally thought of as a fun thing to have, it is my goal to make sure that every patient feels comfortable and leaves with a smile on their face. I also plan to stay up to date with the latest technology in the field of orthodontics to allow for shorter treatment durations and a more pleasant experience.
I have perfectionist tendencies that ensure I take work very seriously, but I balance that with my enthusiastic personality. I am a quick learner and also want everyone in the office to succeed. Also, I always make it a mission of mine that everyone feel appreciated in the office, because without a phenomenal staff there can be no outstanding doctor.I also have experience with both 0.018" and 0.022" twin bracket and self-ligating brackets in both metal and ceramic. I was also fortunate to treat quite a few patients using the Damon System. I have used multiple Class II correctors including the Forsus appliance and Carriere. I have treated many Phase I cases utilizing rapid palatal expanders, headgear, facemask therapy, and 2x4 appliances to prepare them for Phase 2 treatment. I am Invisalign certified and have ample experience with 3D scanners, specifically the iTero scanner, along with digital radiographs and digital charting programs.
I am originally from a large, working farm in Virginia. I pride myself on creating bonds with my patients that will allow them to feel comfortable and relaxed ensuring that their orthodontic experience is easy and enjoyable. Having been a student for so long, I am constantly learning from others to allow for myself to become a more efficient practitioner. When I'm not working, I enjoy group fitness classes, spending time with my dog, and cooking. Above all else, I love spending time with family and friends, exploring new places, and meeting great people.
