I am passionate about dentistry because I love helping people achieve their dream smile, ideal oral health, and enjoy developing life-long relationships with them as their dentist. As a Hawaii native, I believe in caring for each patient like “ohana” or family, and with the “Spirit of Aloha,” a way of life and treating others with love, compassion, and respect. I pride myself in providing patients with honest, gentle, and high-quality dental care based on a relationship of trust and integrity.
As a teenager and in my early 20’s, I received a significant amount of dental care because of poor eating habits and sports-related trauma to my teeth. Fortunately, my dentists were very caring, patient, and non-judgmental, which inspires my strong desire to treat patients with the same values. I personally understand the anxiety, discomfort, and pain patients experience with dentistry because I too was once a patient terrified of going to the dentist. It is a blessing and privilege to help each patient obtain a healthy, beautiful smile they love through sympathetic and genuine dental care.
I believe it is important to genuinely listen to patients’ concerns, and exceed their expectations with comprehensive, empathetic dental care. I am an advocate for prevention and patient education about oral health and the impact on general health. Most importantly, I value teamwork and building strong relationships based on trust and mutual respect to help patients achieve optimal dental health, ideal function, and a beautiful smile.
In my free time I enjoy taking my dog to the beach, surfing, hiking, working out, spending time with friends and family, and serving at my church and within the community.
