I was born in Florida, USA and raised in Venezuela. I attended Nova Southeastern University for my Bachelor of Science in Biology. I attended University of the Pacific Arthur A. Dugoni school of Dentistry in San Francisco where I earned my DDS degree and highest honors of my class.
Dentistry has always been my dream job since I was a child. The most rewarding aspect of dentistry is connecting with people and helping them set goals to improve their lives and self-confidence. Myself and the team at Nook Dental focus on preventative, innovative, and reconstructive dentistry. I believe that patient education and prevention is the best approach to a lifetime of oral health. Although when dental needs do arise, I am dedicated to provide high quality comprehensive dental care to meet your needs. I am passionate about learning new techniques and improving my skills to provide quality care to my patients. I regularly take continuing education courses to stay updated, and I am an active member of the American Dental Association, and the California Dental Association. I look forward to meeting you and building a long-lasting relationship here at Nook Dental.
