At this point in my career, I look back on a long history in the dental business - It all began growing up with a father who practiced dentistry in Port Orchard. I had the opportunity to work in his office from a young age as a sterilization tech, receptionist, and dental assistant. After graduating from college, my first career was as a dental hygienist. I spent 6 years working and realized that taking the next step to become a dentist was inevitably part of the plan. I attended dental school at Creighton University and graduated with honours in 2004. After which, I opened a start-up practice in Gig Harbor in 2005 and enjoyed my career as an owner dentist for many years. My goal has always been to be recognised as a dentist that considers comprehensive care, overall health and wellness of my patients, and completes treatment with aesthetics in mind. I know that I have a clear sense of the business side of dentistry and a full understanding of the treatment planning process for each patient. I am a firm believer that general health is directly correlated to dental health. We see this daily in practice and make an effort to always acknowledge this important relationship in our patients' dental care. This past year marked the 20th anniversary of my career as a dentist and with that I am enjoying new opportunities in Port Orchard! Reconnecting with my home town has been rewarding and is exactly the right fit for this stage in my dental practice career. South Kitsap Family Dentistry has been a pillar in the Port Orchard community for many years and I plan to be a positive influence for the time I am here. I have enjoyed slowing down somewhat, but have every intention of utilising my skills in Washington and our second home in Arizona for as long as I can. I particularly enjoy the art of cosmetic dentistry and getting patients healthy again after a long dental absence. Maybe this is you? Come and see us...you will be well taken care of at SKFD!
