I was born in France and grew up in Spain. I worked as a dental assistant and patient coordinator back in Spain. What I like the most about dentistry is the relationships we can forge with our patients and helping them reach their optimal oral health. I love photography, traveling, baking and spending time with my family which will be growing soon with our little baby boy!

I live in Hillsborough with my family. As a surgical assistant, I am dedicated to providing exceptional patient care. It is my goal to ensure that our patients feel comfortable throughout their entire treatment process. When not at the office, I enjoy spending time with my daughter and my two cats.

I grew up in Durham and attended UNC hygiene school. I live in Roxboro with my husband and daughter. When I am not at work, you can find me drinking coffee, taking my daughter to extracurricular activities, working out or spending time with my sister.
