I graduated with honors from the University of California, Los Angeles. Continuing the proud Bruin tradition, I completed my professional education and received my Doctorate of Dental Surgery from the UCLA School of Dentistry (same year as Dr. Eddie!). Upon graduating, I pursued my general practice residency at University Medical Center in Fresno, California. The following year, I moved to Philadelphia to do my orthodontic residency and receive my Master in Oral Biology from Temple University. I am an active member of the American Association of Orthodontists and American Dental Association.

I have a passion for working with patients of all ages and I am excited to be joining Dr. Eddie’s team to provide patients the smile they deserve. Having had crooked teeth once myself, I can empathize with my patients and help guide them through the treatment process. It is my ultimate goal to help patients gain the self-confidence they need by creating beautiful smiles.

I am a big fan of the UCLA Bruins sports teams, and in my spare time, I enjoy being with my family and 3 children, traveling, learning about other cultures, and trying new foods.
