In this cross-promotion episode of Jaw Talk, I was interviewed by Joanna Scott with the Story Project podcast about my journey into dentistry, which is deeply influenced by a rich family heritage in the field. Despite this background, I initially pursued a career in physical therapy. However, after feeling unfulfilled, I decided to pivot and enter dentistry, which allowed me to bring a unique dual perspective to patient care.
My professional evolution has since shifted toward a holistic dental approach, focusing on early detection and prevention. I utilize the latest advancements in digital dentistry and imaging technology to identify issues like TMJ early on, with the goal of transforming children's lives through awareness and proactive intervention.
I am passionate about treating each patient like family and guiding them toward optimal health resources. My upcoming initiative to unite women in dentistry reflects my commitment to fostering collaboration and empowerment within the dental community, ensuring a brighter future for dental healthcare.
