Passionate About Saving Smiles
From a young age, I was fascinated by the intricate world of dentistry, and I knew I wanted to make a real difference in patients’ lives. As an endodontist, my passion lies in preserving natural teeth and providing compassionate, precise care to every patient I meet. Whether helping someone find relief from pain or saving a tooth that might otherwise be lost, I take pride in making a meaningful impact—one smile at a time.
“Endodontics isn’t just about performing root canals—it’s about helping people feel comfortable, confident, and pain-free. My goal is to make every patient’s experience as stress-free and positive as possible.”
Education & Expertise
I earned my Doctorate of Dental Medicine from the University of Pittsburgh, where I was honored with the Student Achievement Award for Excellence in Endodontics. After dental school, I completed a general practice residency at Lehigh Valley Hospital, where I treated medically complex patients and responded to facial trauma cases.
Following my passion for saving teeth, I pursued specialized training in endodontics at the University of Pittsburgh. During my residency, I had the privilege of caring for veterans at the Pittsburgh VA and volunteering for Mission of Mercy dental events, reinforcing my commitment to patient-centered care. I have also contributed to multiple research projects and presented my findings at the American Association of Endodontists conference.
I am proud to be a lifelong learner and an active member of several professional organizations, including:
- American Association of Endodontists (AAE)
- American Dental Association (ADA)
- Texas Dental Association (TDA)
Beyond the Office
When I’m not helping patients, I love exploring the great outdoors, whether it’s hiking new trails or playing soccer. I also enjoy reading, continuous learning, and discovering new interests that challenge me to grow both personally and professionally.
At Endodontic Associates of Plano, I look forward to providing expert, compassionate care to every patient who walks through our doors. Whether you need root canal therapy or expert advice on saving a tooth, I’m here to help.
