I graduated from Pierce College, in Lakewood, with my Bachelors of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene. I recently got married to my husband, Nazar. Our favorite thing to do together is to go camping (more like glamping… haha)and enjoying a good cup of coffee. Yes, even dental hygienists drink coffee!
I am very passionate about dental hygiene and love building relationships with all of my patients. I truly enjoy getting to know each and every one of you and treating you the way I do my own family. I love educating about oral health and how it correlates to overall health. My dental hygiene goal is to make sure that you are comfortable being in my chair and that you feel confident in knowing how to maintain a healthy smile at home and anywhere you go. I’m so excited to work with each and every one of you!
