I’ve been with Smile Solutions since 2014, after receiving my DANB certification in the dental assistant program at Labette Community College. I love what I do—helping people feel good about their smiles is the best. The team here is like family, so work never really feels like “work.” When I’m not at the office, I’m enjoying family time with my husband, our four kids, and two grandkids, that’s my happy place.

I joined Smile Solutions in 2012. I enjoy working with a team that feels more like family than co-workers and the wide variety of people I meet at the office. I graduated from Pittsburg State University with a Master of Arts degree in History in December 2013. I am also an online adjunct History instructor. In my free time, I enjoy reading, crafts, spending time with family and friends, playing with her dog, flower gardening, and traveling.

I started my dental journey here at Smile Solutions alongside Dr.Krishna this year, & to say the least, I enjoy having a home away from home & a family that’s not blood. Working at such a loving place with such supportive individuals has only fueled my passion for making people smile! I’ve found helping people feel comfortable & beautiful have as much of an impact on their lives as it does mine. I aspire to keep growing & learning in my work & succeeding with it in the future. In my free time, I adore spending time with the people i love & my animals!

I am a foreign-trained dentist and a graduate in Public Health. Currently, I am in the process of applying to dental schools in the United States. In the meantime, I am gaining valuable clinical experience working as a patient care coordinator with Dr. Krishna at Smile Solutions. In the future, I hope to return to Smile Solutions as a licensed dentist and continue serving this wonderful dental family. Outside of work, I enjoy spending quality time with my family and friends.
