I attended the San Jose City College Dental program and then went onto San Jose State University graduating with my BA. I then got Board Certified and have been working in the dental field for over 20 plus years. I have a love of dentistry and taught Implantology and x-rays to assistants and doctors in San Jose while raising my children. I also enjoy flying kites at the local park.
I have been working in the dental field for 7 + years as an RDA. I enjoy working in the dental field because I love helping people. When I am not working you will find me taking care of my two boys and my dog. I am an avid movie watcher, and a big-time foodie and if given the opportunity I can sleep for hours.

I bring over two decades of dedicated dental hygiene experience to the practice. I am licensed as both a Registered Dental Hygienist and a Registered Dental Hygienist in Alternative Practice, I have also provided comprehensive care in general dentistry, periodontics, and specialized environments such as skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. My expertise includes advanced hygiene concepts and patient education, all aimed at improving oral health outcomes. I am passionate about making dental care accessible and comfortable for all my patients, and I take pride in my ability to build trust and ease patient anxieties. When not chairside, I continue to expand my knowledge to better serve my patients and community.
I first went to school to be an insurance biller and have been billing insurance for over 20 years. Then went back to school to become a Registered Dental Assistant and have been an RDA for over 10 years now. I get the best of both worlds because I can help my patients both in the front with their financial questions and in the back with treatment. My happy place is helping others and that is why I absolutely love working in the dental field because every day I get to help people.
I have been working in dental for 20 + years as a Registered Dental Assistant (RDA). Thanks to Dr. Ewing I was able to continue my education at UOP obtaining my RDAEF2. As a Registered Dental Assistant in Extended Functions 2 (RDAEF2) I can perform a wider range of duties than a regular dental assistant. These duties include tasks such as taking final impressions, placing and adjusting fillings, cementing crowns, sizing and fitting endodontic points, and conducting preliminary oral health assessments along with lab procedures creating all on X cases. My goal is to continue my education even further to become a lab designer. In my spare time I like to spend time with my family and friends. I am very active in my church and some of my hobbies include soccer, hiking, bike riding and camping.
I have been a dental assistant for over six years, and I bring a calm, caring presence to every appointment. I love being part of the transformation that helps patients feel confident and happy with their smiles. I especially enjoy assisting in surgeries and take pride in making sure patients feel comfortable and well cared for throughout their visit.
Outside of the office, I enjoy hiking, crafting, traveling, and expressing herself through fashion.
I started my dental career as a Registered Dental Assistant graduating from DVC and joined Smile Makers Dental Care – 29 years ago! I enjoy cooking, traveling, and cycling, both indoors and out, having completed the Tour de Cure for Diabetes, a 50-mile ride. I really enjoy my job and working with Dr. Ewing. Our patients are the greatest and I have known them for so long that they are like family to me.
