I grew up in the scenic hills of Charleston, West Virginia, and followed my passion for smiles all the way to West Virginia University, where I earned both my Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene and my Doctorate of Dental Surgery (Go Mountaineers!). I then completed advanced specialty training in pediatric dentistry at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, where I received extensive clinical and academic training in the comprehensive oral health care of infants, children, and adolescents, including those with special health care needs.

These days, I’m proud to call Chesapeake, Virginia home, where I live with my wonderful husband, our two sweet and silly little boys (ages 2 and 3), and our two high-energy Jack Russell Terriers. With that crew, you can imagine—our house is part playground, part zoo, and always full of love!

As a pediatric dentist, my mission is to create fun, positive, and stress-free dental visits that help every child feel safe, supported, and proud of their smile. Whether it’s a child’s very first dental visit or another step in their growing smile journey, I’m here to make the experience positive, personal, and dino-mite.  I can’t wait to welcome your family to Every Little Tooth—where every little smile matters!
