I moved to Austin with my husband Matthew after we graduated from dental school together at Indiana University in 2010. Matt is from San Antonio, so we decided to head down to Texas, and we knew Austin would be a perfect fit for us. We moved to South Austin and immediately fell in love with the area.

I have been practicing dentistry in Austin for 11 years now, including 3 years concentrating on treating under-served children through the St. David’s Foundation mobile dental program. I joined my husband here at Smile Creations in December of 2016 and have enjoyed serving all the great people and families who enter our door!

I have enjoyed being active in the local Austin dental society, as it allows me to keep updated with the latest advances in the dental field through education, collaborate with other dentists in the area, and have a voice in organized dentistry. I also serve on the board of the Capital Area Dental Foundation, the charitable arm of our dental society, because I feel that it is important to give back to the community and provide care for those who have limited access to it.

Since we’ve moved here, we’ve had two sons, Grayson and Everett, and our daughter Cora. Our children are the center of our lives and they constantly keep us on our toes.
