I am deeply passionate about pediatric dentistry and helping children achieve healthy, beautiful smiles for life! My own childhood experiences with transformative dental care inspired me to pursue this path, earning my first dental degree in Venezuela, later a second dental degree from the University of Colorado, and finally my pediatric dental specialty from the University of Toledo. For the past ten years, my mission has been providing compassionate care to pediatric patients from underserved communities. As a proud mother of eight, including a son who overcame early communication challenges, I have a special place in my heart for patients with complex medical and special needs, ensuring every child feels understood, safe, and deeply cared for.
When I’m not in the office, my life revolves around my wonderful husband and our eight incredible children, who constantly motivate me to push my boundaries. My list of favorite things includes: creating lasting memories with my big family—especially while driving around in our 15-passenger van!—going to the movies, and escaping to the beach whenever we are close to it.
