"I have worked as a Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) for over 20 years. Most of my time has been spent practicing in Carmel and Monterey, California. I studied Biology at the University of California at Santa Barbara and graduated from the University of California at San Francisco in 1997 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene.
As a dental hygienist and mom, I have seen firsthand the negative effects that poor tongue posture and improper lip seal have on the mouth and the body as a whole. My youngest son had a significant tongue-tie as an infant and toddler. In 2010 I attended a dental hygiene course and learned the importance of proper tongue placement and how this impacts facial growth patterns in young children. Due to my son’s facial growth pattern I quickly diagnosed a tongue-tie. This personal knowledge and diagnosis lead me to begin my studies with Sarah Hornsby at Faceology and the AOMT. I’m now a certified orofacial myofunctional therapist. My goals are to help patients with mouth breathing habits and other orofacial myofunctional disorders (OMD) through a series of therapeutic exercises.
I believe in a holistic, whole-body approach to medicine which recognizes that the health of the mouth directly relates to the overall health of the body. With my treatment programs, you can put mouth breathing related health issues behind and live a happier and healthier life."
