My passion for dentistry began at age 11, when orthodontic treatment transformed my smile and confidence. That experience showed me how deeply oral health can influence a person's well-being and inspired me to help others feel comfortable, confident, and cared for.
I earned my dental degree in Brazil and revalidated my credentials in Europe. I then completed my Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) at Nova Southeasten University in 2022. I am committed to lifelong learning and pursue advanced education to provide thoughtful, current, evidence-based care tailored to each patient's needs.
I believe every patient deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. I take the time to listen carefully, explain treatment clearly, answer questions, and respect each person's pace. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming experience, especially for patients who feel anxious about dental visits, while building trust through compassionate, confident care.
Outside the office, I enjoy oil painting, crafting, reading, watching movies, photography, biking with my husband, traveling, and horseback riding.
