I grew up in the northern suburbs of Chicago.
Since 4th grade career day, I knew that I wanted to be a dentist.
I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Illinois, and then headed to the University of Michigan for dental school.
After dental school, I spent the next two years at Harvard University Children's Hospital of Boston as a resident specializing in pediatric dentistry.
My husband and I met in dental school and thought that Grand Rapids would be a great place to raise a family and cheer for the University of Michigan.

Flu season is back so of course I got sick.
Finding a health center that doesn't charge an obscene amount of money to be seen is always a struggle.
It was the closest, same-day appointment center I found on Yelp.
They take several types of insurance, including mine which only charged a $10 copay.
They even have their own app where you fill out your symptoms and payment information right there.
Once I arrived, all I had to worry about was not coughing on the doctor!
I got a prescription filled at the in-house pharmacy and was on my merry way about 30 minutes later.

Dental radiographs can help your dentist identify diseases and developmental problems before they become serious health issues.
