Life & Work

Growing up as an immigrant, I witnessed a serious demand for dental work in my low-income community. Many people did not seek dental care until it was too late and the cost was too overwhelming. I became eager to help those who are in the most need such as the financially disadvantaged or those with particularly difficult medical complications. My dream came true in 2015 when the UCLA School of Dentistry accepted me, and since then I have been able to provide treatment for many of these patients. Serving them gives meaning to my life and a special purpose to my career. Outside of work, I enjoy being a mom of a little boy.
