I graduated from Schreiner in December 2012, attended UTHealth School of Dentistry in Houston and graduated in 2017. While there I worked in community clinics, participated in events such as Give Kids a Smile and Texas Mission of Mercy, and took a mission trip to Jamaica where we spent a week providing free dental care to the community there. I applied and was accepted to the Graduate Orthodontics program at the University of Oklahoma Health Science Center. I am currently in my last leg of that residency with a graduation date of December 12, 2019. Orthodontics is my passion and it is an amazing opportunity to work with patients over an extended period of time, get to know them, and make a difference in their lives by giving them confidence in their smile. Every patient is different which keeps every day interesting. After graduation I have plans to start working in Austin, TX at Mary Kay Becher Orthodontics. My time at Schreiner instilled a passion in me for deep personal connections with people and that drives my patient interactions daily. On a more personal note, I am getting married next year to fellow Schreiner grad, Andy Petersen!
