I was born at St. Mary’s in Reno, NV, attended local schools, and enjoyed a career in dental assisting before graduating from the Clark County Community College Dental Hygiene Program. I continue to enjoy the privilege of providing dental hygiene care and education to new and many longstanding patients.

I have two sisters—one living in Winnemucca, NV, and one in Redding, CA—along with multiple cousins and second cousins here in Reno. I was blessed with one son, Brian, who unfortunately passed away at 24 years of age.

I love our beautiful sunrises, gorgeous sunsets, gardening, a great book, anything chocolate, and spending time with my faithful dog, a Havapoo named LuLu.
