A smile can be transformative; it can connect people. There are hundreds of languages in the world, but a smile speaks to them all. I love to smile, and thanks to my childhood orthodontist, I wear my smile proudly.

I practiced general dentistry for several years before going on to specialize in orthodontics. As a general dentist, I often saw the effects of a “bad bite” on overall dental health—situations in which orthodontic treatment could have prevented other dental problems. Orthodontics provides me with the opportunity to lay a foundation for a healthy mouth while creating beautiful smiles. It is this balance of art and science that drew me into the profession and drives me to continuously progress as technology evolves.

EDUCATION
Bachelor of Arts – University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia
Doctor of Dental Medicine – University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia General Practice
Residency – Albert Einstein Medical Center, Philadelphia Certificate in Orthodontics – University of
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia

I am originally from New England, having lived in Connecticut for most of my life. I am excited to have joined the Smile Doctors team. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling near and far, hiking, and playing tennis in a local USTA league. I also love baking (and eating) dessert! Occasionally, you’ll also find me reading about orthodontics after-hours…I can’t help my inner nerd!

“I am deeply grateful for the outstanding support provided by the clinic during my transition from Ukraine after the war. Having worn braces for a little over a year, the clinic played a pivotal role in ensuring the seamless continuation of my orthodontic treatment. The professionalism exhibited by the staff was truly commendable. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, their warmth and friendliness immediately put me at ease. It’s not just about the dental expertise but also about the human touch, and the staff at this clinic excelled in both aspects. In times of transition and uncertainty, finding a reliable and compassionate healthcare provider is truly a blessing. The clinic not only met but exceeded my expectations, and I wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone in need of exceptional dental care. Thank you for being an integral part of my journey, and for making a positive impact on my overall well-being.”
