I grew up in western Pennsylvania in a town with a great community, which is why I love Alachua and Gainesville so much. I attended the University of Arizona for my undergraduate studies from 2004 - 2008 and majored in Biochemistry and Physiology. I then attended the University of Florida College of Dentistry and graduated in 2012. I completed a General Practice Residency at the VA in Gainesville and eventually found my way to Alachua Family Dentistry. I love our office because it feels like home, and we also truly have the best patients! My goal is to help patients feel as comfortable as possible and to do whatever I can to provide them with a positive dental experience. In my spare time, I enjoy watching and playing sports, especially the Gators!
I grew up in Indianapolis, Indiana, where I and my dog explored every inch of the city, and I graduated from the Indiana University School of Dentistry. I moved to Gainesville with my fianc, Daniel in 2020. When I am not practicing dentistry, I love to travel and explore. I also enjoy yoga, hiking, rock climbing, reading and spending time with my family and their big, yellow Labrador!
I was born and raised in this area and love this community. So, when I was asked to join the team at Alachua Family Dentistry in September of 2018 as Business Manager, I was beyond excited. I have been part of the dental world since graduating from Santa Fe College in 1998. I started out as a Dental Assistant and enjoyed the clinical aspect of dentistry for 14 years before switching gears to the business side of things in 2012. I am incredibly blessed to be a part of this fantastic team and get to see our exceptional patients both in the office and the community. My life and heart are full with my three kids, Tyler, Zoe and Addison and my crazy French Bulldog, Olivia Belle. My spare time is taken up by my kiddos and family, friends, beach trips, watching all Gator sports, road trips, the gym, running and fishing.
I graduated from Santa Fe College in 2001 and have been working with Alachua Family Dentistry since the day the doors opened for business in April 2008. I used to peek in the windows to see the progress whle it was being built! I am certified to give local anesthesia and enjoy seeing my patients everyday and making them smile. I have been happily married to my husband Steve since 2001 and have 2 children named Paul 'Paulie' and Ella 'Ella-bug'. I enjoy spending time with my church, my family, reading, relaxing on the beach and Gator football.
I started out in the medical field as a Certified Nursing Assistant over 20 years ago. I have always wanted to help people in some capacity and transitioned to Dental Assisting, which I love. I have over 12 years of experience and received my certification as an Expanded Functions Dental Assistant and in Dental Radiology from the University of Florida Dental School. I joined Alachua Family Dentistry in 2012 and have learned so much here. I really enjoy working here with a great team that is the most caring bunch of people I have had the pleasure of working with. I was born and raised in Gainesville, Florida and now live in High Springs with my family. I am a long time animal lover and have a couple of rescued cats and dogs. I love all kinds of music and enjoy watching movies. Painting is my latest favorite passion. I am also a big fan of reading and like to write poems. My daughter has even helped me self-publish 2 poetry books that are out there in Amazon land.
I was blessed to have been given the opportunity to work here at Alachua Family Dentistry since January 2012. Not only do I work for great doctors, but I work with a wonderful group of ladies, and call me biased, but I think we have the best patients! Each day I am excited to see who will be visiting our office and I enjoy sharing adventure locations and stories and talking animals (especially alligators) with our young patients. I am the proud Mum to 2 wonderful young men, John and Kevin. In my spare time I enjoy going to church, watching movies, reading, and exploring the great outdoors by hiking and/or kayaking and sharing those adventures on my YouTube channel.
I joined the office in 2008 as a Dental Assistant where I worked my way up to Head Dental Assistant. I returned to Santa Fe College and graduated in 2013 with an AS in Dental Hygiene and returned to the office to start the career that I love. I am certified in anesthesia as well. I love to meet all the patients and get to know them and watch their children grow. I was born and raised in Alachua, married the love of my life in June 2014 and now live in High Springs with my husband and my amazing children: Hunter, Bellamy, Reese. We really enjoy all out door activities like hunting, fishing and of course baseball.
Born and raised in Lake City, Florida. I grew up knowing I wanted to be a part of the dental world. After high school I attended Santa Fe College's Dental Hygiene Program where I fell in love with making connections with my patients and easing their dental anxiety. When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my wonderful boyfriend, family, and friends. I am also a dog mom to my very spoiled dog, Molly.
I was born and raised in High Springs and I love being able to work so close to home.

I am a lifelong resident of Alachua County and thankful for being a part of this community.
