I'm a rising fourth-year dental student originally from Augusta. After I graduate in May of 2027, I hope to continue growing as a clinician through a GPR or AEGD program. I value mentorship, teamwork, and the opportunity for continued learning that dentistry offers. I am eager to join a practice where I can continue growing as a clinician and combine technique and excellence with compassionate, patient-centered care.
I'm an Augusta native and attended Lakeside High School, Augusta University, and now the Dental College of Georgia! Growing up I played practically every sport under the sun but later focused on Lacrosse, swimming, and cross country. Nowadays, I love staying active by playing tennis, pickleball, and golf, and I teach spin and pilates at a local fitness studio here in Augusta.
Outside of my dental school coursework, I have served as a Sim Lab Tutor, our class Historian, ASDA Wellness and Service Committee Chair, and President of our Endodontics study club. I've been able to get involved in research with Dr. Frederick Rueggeberg and Dr. Franklin Tay. I was also fortunate enough to attend the ASDA District 4 Conference and the ADA's Lobby Day in Washington, DC, both of which reinforced an interest in organized dentistry that I hope to continue throughout my career.
As an associate dentist, I hope to not only join a practice, but also be a resource in the community by building long-term relationships with patients and promoting oral health outside of the office. I hope to find a practice where I can build upon the foundation set in dental school and provide compassionate, comprehensive care to patients.
