Meet Our HygienistBorn and raised in South Boston, Virginia, I’ve always had a deep-rooted passion for health and wellness. I earned my first Bachelor’s degree in Health, Physical Education, and Science with a concentration in Health Science from Virginia Commonwealth University. Building on that foundation, I went on to complete my Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene at VCU, graduating Cum Laude.

To me, being a dental hygienist is more than just providing cleanings—it’s about building trust, offering comfort, and empowering each patient to feel confident in their smile. I’m passionate about creating a positive experience for every individual in my chair, ensuring they feel seen, heard, and cared for.
