About Smiles Dental Center
I have the luxury of having one of the best and most fulfilling jobs in the world. To be a dentist means to be an educator and a healer, to be an honest and respected member of our communities. I feel that it is my responsibility to never stop learning and always keep helping. I believe that the team I work with and the families of patients who allow me to treat them affect everything I do in my life and how I live my life.
I try to have passion for everything I do in life, but within dentistry, my passion lies in helping others feel better, smile more, and increase their dental IQs. I chose to join the oral healthcare field because I wanted to make a difference and change the way everyone looked at dentistry. I wanted to show people that dentists are not someone to be feared, but that they can do their jobs in a pain-free way, educate others, and lead a team to achieve amazing goals. Education and Continuing Education
I completed my dental training at the University of Illinois-Chicago College of Dentistry, but my education did not stop there. I am a great believer in a lifestyle of continued learning and discovery; I stay passionate for my work by knowing that dentistry is always advancing in technology and techniques to better serve our patients.
This is what excites me most about my work: We are in a field where we can continue to learn and evolve with our team and patients to bring dentistry to a higher level. Continuing education allows me to provide the best care possible and to stay on the cutting edge in dentistry for myself and my patients. I take hundreds of hours of CE courses every year.
