I've recently relocated to beautiful San Diego for a change of pace and to be a bit closer to family. I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada and moved to Austin, TX to practice dentistry for the last 3 years. I enjoy spending time in nature, whether that be just relaxing at the beach, going on a hike/trail with fiancé and 2 dogs, or visiting other California cities. I also enjoy cooking new recipes and trying different restaurants in the city. I am the first in my family to go to college and the first to enter the healthcare field. I love being a dentist, combining science, art, and the desire to help other people. I currently provide general restorative treatment, along with some experience with Invisalign. I do limited extractions and anterior/premolar root canals, however, I'm hoping to expand my skillset to molar RCTs and implant placement, given the appropriate opportunity and chance for CE. My goal is to find a dental home with a warm culture that allows me to be a strong clinician that will always do my best for my patients. I'm looking forward to becoming a part of the California dental community.
