I received my bachelor’s degree in neuroscience from the College of William and Mary, followed by my Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Maryland School of Dentistry. I then completed my orthodontic residency and earned a Master of Science degree at Oregon Health & Science University. During my schooling, I received the American Dental Association Award and the Harry E. Kelsey Memorial Award for Professional Demeanor. I regularly attend the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) annual session and always learn some new practice information, hear about cutting-edge research and see the latest advances in technology in our field. I also enjoy getting together with colleagues and discussing new treatment modalities. I am an active participant of the DC Dental Society, Greater Washington Area Women’s Dentists, American Association of Orthodontists and the American Dental Association.
