As a graduate from New York University College of Dentistry I have strived towards enhancing Manhattan’s smiles one individual at a time. I continued my education with residency at New York Presbyterian hospital in Park Slope and have since been continuing to do full mouth rehabilitation whether it be by simple fillings to crown/ bridges, or maintaining oral health.

My biggest asset I would say would be my ability to relate to my patients with compassion and empathy with realism while making their experience as pleasant as possible. On my spare time you will find me traveling to Toronto and London visiting my family, or often on the slopes of the steepest mountains plowing through on skis. I’m an athlete by nature, but my greatest strive is giving my patients exactly what they want and as easily as possible.
