About Me

While all types of medicine interest me, I am especially drawn to pediatrics, women’s health, and helping patients with substance use disorders.

I specialize in chronic disease management, well child visits, and IUD and Nexplanon insertion/removal. I want to keep you healthy and active!

Some of my hobbies include reading, running, and checking out local events in this great community with my family and friends.

About Me

I have a passion for the mission of community health and have been a Licensed Professional Counselor with Partnership since 2012. Most of my experience has been working with adults and providing general care for those with mental health concerns.

I find forensic counseling interesting and I am able to grow my knowledge and skills through my role as a group facilitator with a program working with youth who have been adjudicated of a sexual offense.

I enjoy working within PCHC’s integrated primary care model because it allows me to provide brief, solution-focused care while also collaborating with your health care provider to establish a mind-body approach which emphasizes creating healthy lifestyles.

About Me

Originally hailing from Cleveland, Ohio, I went on to complete my dental school at Boston University and then a one year residency at Penn Medicine Lancaster General Hospital.  After that I practiced at a community health center in rural Virginia, so Partnership is a perfect fit for me to continue helping people gain confidence in their smiles while also returning to my Midwestern roots!

In my free time, I enjoy cycling and spending time outdoors (especially with my dog), and curling up with a good book at the end of the day.

About Me

I became interested in dentistry through overseas medical/dental mission work while I was an undergraduate student. While I enjoy numerous different aspects of dentistry, I especially like working with kids and learning about minimally invasive dental options.

Partnership Community Health Center has been a perfect fit for me as it allows me to work with many kids/families who otherwise might not have access to dental care.

In my time away from the office, I am a busy “boy mom” learning about Nerf guns, Legos, and slime making.  I also enjoy travel, movies, and trying new restaurants with family and friends.

About Me

About Me

My philosophy on oral health is inspired by personal discovery that holistic health starts in the mouth.  I enjoy sharing my knowledge of this mouth and body connection with my patients.

I believe that change in behavior starts to shift when we fully grasp the consequences.  I treat my patients as equal partners and hold them accountable for their role in the treatment process.  Working for Partnership is a natural stepping stone in my dental hygiene career, helping to fill a tremendous need in the community.

Originally from Poland, I lived in Chicago for 22 years, where I practiced dental hygiene for nearly 14 years.  I moved to Appleton in hopes to enjoy a more peaceful life and I have not been disappointed.

About Me

I was born and raised in central Michigan. I moved to Wisconsin in 2019 after completing my dental training in Kentucky and Pennsylvania. My goal as a dentist is to create a warm, welcoming environment to keep my patients comfortable and to show them that visiting the dentist doesn’t have to be an unpleasant experience.

In my free time, I enjoy playing with my dog, Shenzi, and exploring Wisconsin’s many state parks and breweries.

About Me

I always enjoyed learning about science while growing up in rural Southwest Michigan, but wasn’t sure what to do with that passion until I settled initially on becoming a veterinarian.  After a year of looking at horses’ mouths, however, I was so fascinated by what you can learn from teeth that I knew I needed to become a dentist.

Having been raised in an underserved area, I knew that I wanted to pursue a career in public health.  Partnership Community Health Center is a perfect fit for me and I am excited to give back to this community.

When I’m not talking about teeth, I enjoy reading, photography, and skiing.  Living in the south for school for 8 years has put a pause on my skiing, and I’m eager to get back to those cold, winter days.
