I have a husband who’s also in the dental profession as well. I have two beautiful children. I love to work out, exercise. Just being outdoors is one of my favorite things to do. I have wanted to be a dentist since I was in sixth grade. That’s all I ever thought about. So I’m living out my dream, taking care of patients. I’ve been with Riviera Dental Care now for eight years. It’s been one of the best experiences I’ve had. I’ve worked all over the country, and Riviera Dental Care has been home to me. I love taking care of the patients here in Foley and the surrounding areas. It just feels like being home to me.
