I’m a Bay Area native and have worked in this office for 44 years. In the office, I have worked as a chair side assistant, in the laboratory fabricating orthodontic appliances and now as the Treatment/Patient Coordinator. Our office is a wonderful place to work because it is filled with laughter and beautiful smiles. I greatly enjoy working with patients and take great pride in making them feel comfortable and informed. In my spare time, I enjoy running, gardening, and spending time with my husband, children, and grandchildren.

I have been in the orthodontic field for 28 years. For the past 21 years, I have been the appointed Head Clinical Assistant in this wonderful office. I love working with the patients and helping to create their beautiful and healthy smiles. When I’m not with my work family, I enjoy spending time with my loving husband, three wonderful daughters and our four grandchildren!

I am very happy to be able to say that all my orthodontic treatment was done at this very office! I have been coming to this office since I was four years old! I believed in my Doctor's practice so much that I was inspired to go to school to become an assistant. I am honored to be apart of this practice! I have had the pleasure of working for this office for 9 years. I have been in the dental field for over 12 years! I enjoy helping others build confidence with their beautiful smile! While as much as I love what I do, outside of work I enjoy spending the weekends, wake-boarding, and being with my husband and Fur-babies. Very soon we will be welcoming our first baby!
