Honored and deeply grateful to be recognized once again as a Washingtonian Top Dentist. What makes this recognition especially meaningful is that it comes from the votes and nominations of my fellow dentists throughout the DC area.

Dentistry is a profession that demands lifelong learning, and I remain committed to continually expanding my knowledge, refining my skills, and bringing the best possible care to every patient who trusts me with their smile. The more I learn, the more I realize there is still to discover—and that pursuit of excellence is what keeps me inspired every day.

To my patients: thank you for your confidence, loyalty, and support. Since opening my doors in 2008, you have embraced me, trusted me with your care, referred your friends and family, and allowed my dream of a locally owned, woman-owned small business to thrive. I am truly honored to be part of this community and your lives.

This recognition belongs to all of us. Thank you for making the journey so rewarding. 💙

✨ Meet the woman behind the smile. ✨

Doctor. Spokesperson. Speaker. Mentor. Advocate.

This playful caricature captures so much of what I value most: lifting others up, building meaningful relationships, leading with heart, and bringing energy wherever I go.

Whether I’m caring for patients, advocating for our profession, mentoring future leaders, speaking on a stage, or dancing through life, my mission remains the same:

💙 Make people feel seen.
💙 Make people feel valued.
💙 Leave every room a little brighter than I found it.

Here’s to making smiles, changing lives, and embracing every opportunity to connect, inspire, and serve.

Can someone please remind me again how the mouth is not part of the body, nor our healthcare? A dental infection can only kill you if left untreated... so I guess not that serious.

Thanks for listening to my PSA.

This affects ALL of us- doctors and patients. Please consider signing!!! Take action - ask your Representative to support H.R. 7931 to help ensure fairness, consistency, and accountability in dental coverage for patients and providers.

*ERISA Loophole*

Take action - ask your Representative to support H.R. 7931 to help ensure fairness, consistency, and accountability in dental coverage for patients and providers.
H.R. 7931, the Improving Dental Administration (IDA) Act, would help ensure that state dental insurance laws protecting patients and providers apply consistently to self-funded dental coverage, and not just fully insured plans. Right now, carriers and administrators often argue that ERISA preemption allows them to avoid state laws on issues like prompt payment, noncovered services, virtual credit cards, network leasing, assignment of benefits and prior authorization continuity.

This two-tiered system, where different patients receiving the same care may be subject to different protections based solely on plan design, creates confusion, delay, and expense for both doctors and patients, and often interferes with the doctor-patient relationship. Congress can fix this now by passing H.R. 7931 and finally close the ERISA loophole carriers often use to justify ignoring state dental insurance reform laws.

Take action now and ask your Representative to support H.R. 7931. Raising your voice will help ensure fairness, consistency, and accountability in dental coverage for patients and providers alike.

ADA advocacy action alert: Ask congress to close the ERISA loophole. Take action now and ask your representative to support H.R. 7931.

If you don’t ask, the answer is always no.

For general dentists, the asking is happening on Capitol Hill—because we represent the and the 200,000+ licensed dentists across the U.S. What we advocate for shapes not just our profession, but the care our patients receive every day.

This year, we’re pushing forward three key bills:

• Resident Education Deferred Interest (REDI) Act — Gives dental residents the ability to defer interest on federal student loans during training, easing early-career financial pressure.
📊 A February 2025 Journal of Dental Education study found ~40% of dental students experience food insecurity—driven by high tuition, limited time, and financial strain.

• Improving Dental Administration Act — Cuts through administrative and insurance red tape so providers can spend less time on paperwork and more time with patients.

• Action for Dental Health Act — Expands access to care through prevention programs, workforce development, community-based initiatives, and charitable services.

Proud to stand alongside a passionate, relentless group of leaders advocating for our patients, our colleagues, and the future of dentistry. 🦷✨
