I was born and raised in Honolulu and am a graduate of ‘Iolani School. Knowing early on that my career interests focused on dentistry, I pursued and graduated from the combined, accelerated B.A./D.D.S. program from the University of Missouri-Kansas City. While in dental school I realized my interest in dentistry focused on the oral healthcare of children and adolescents. Following dental school I completed my pediatric dentistry residency at the University of California-San Francisco and also earned a master of science (M.S.) in oral and craniofacial sciences. 

Our practice strives to develop and maintain a positive attitude towards dentistry for all of our patients. Working with children is a dynamic experience and we are constantly discovering new ways to improve every day. I am fortunate to work with an amazing team in order to achieve this goal. 

Pediatric dentistry is a special field that involves working with not only the child
patient, but his or her family as well. Chasing after my daughters provides me with
the insight to assist me in this endeavor.
