The August theme is empowerment and expression—how do those values show up in your work as a dentist?
These values are truly central to what I do. I believe in educating my patients, so they feel informed and empowered when it comes to their oral health. Through our work, we help patients smile with confidence, and that kind of self-expression has a lasting impact beyond the dental chair.
How do you hope your children see you through the lens of both your business and your home life?
I hope they see a passionate, hard-working mom who cares deeply for her patients, while also being present and loving at home. I strive to be a role model who shows them what balance, commitment, and care look like.
What’s one challenge you’ve faced as a female entrepreneur in healthcare, and how did you overcome it?
One challenge we’ve faced is not always being taken seriously as business owners, especially as women in healthcare. There are times when our expertise has been overlooked or dismissed. But we've overcome that by staying focused, continually showing up with a deep understanding of our business, and delivering excellent care that speaks for itself.
