Additional Information
I am very happy with my career so far. I look forwards to continuing to learn and grow as a person and a dentist. One of my long term goals is to become an AEGD Fellow. I have a large skill set already but I'd like to learn how to do more extensive periodontal surgeries and continue to learn more about placing and restoring implants.
I am a very social, high energy individual. I would say my name fits my personality. I love practicing dentistry and it shows in my clinical work and how I interact with patients. I have 5 kids and an amazing, retired from the military, husband who stays home and supports me in my personal and professional endeavors. I love to travel and have been to more countries than states. I snowboard, hike, cut down trees, rock climb, wakeboard. I make bi-annual bucket lists and see them through. I am currently learning to sail and play the guitar.

- Current production/Collections
- Dentist and Co-owner. I purchased this practice that was struggling right out of dental school from a retiring dentist and grew it into a thriving, multi doctor practice. Working in a rural setting where there were no specialists forced me to develop a well rounded set of clinical skills to be able to give my patients comprehensive treatment. A family tragedy made me decide to sell my practice at a loss and relocate to Idaho.
