Pediatric dentistry is like a work of art. Every child is different, and I love encountering the unique personalities of each one.
I am a proud native of Evanston, and it gives me great pleasure to work in the community that was so instrumental in making me the doctor I am today and also the Beverly community of Chicago. Pediatric dentistry allows me the opportunity to foster lasting relationships with each child and parent I meet, and to deliver quality care that is tailored specifically for the patient. Our team comes with a multitude of experience and we are excited to be serving you in a fun-loving environment.
My affiliation with various dental organizations, along with being former adjunct faculty, has afforded me opportunities to connect with children through a number of outreach projects, local and abroad.
When I am not seeing patients, I enjoy spending time with my amazing husband, Melvin, my three handsome sons - Melvin “Vin”, Mason, Maverick and our dog, Xavier.
