about me
Ever since stepping into a dental office at five years old, I have wanted to become a dentist. During my path to pursue this dream, I met my wonderful husband, Rajiv. In my spare time, I enjoy going on adventures with my husband to explore new areas, try new restaurants and cuisines, and go to UFC fights. Rajiv and I have three hairy children; two cats and a Rottie. I enjoy taking group fitness classes like yoga and Zumba, and a variety of others that challenge me physically and mentally. You will probably find me humming or singing along with the radio, as I love to sing and recognize the joy that can come from always keeping a song in your heart.
