About Me

I grew up north of KC outside a small town on a family farm. This led to my passion for the outdoors! After moving several times for my education, my husband and I are happy to be back in KC living the country lifestyle with our dog (Willow), cat (Frisky), and chickens!

I love being outdoors, whether that's hanging out with all of my animals, gardening, hiking, biking, or paddle-boarding. I also love spending time with my family and friends, reading books, traveling, working out, and trying new restaurants around KC!

Quote

Orthodontics isn't just about creating a perfect smile; it's about improving overall oral health and reducing long-term side effects of an improper bite! My goal is to explain areas of concern, provide options, and help you reach your smile goals.
