Since opening the doors of Holliday Orthodontics in 2004, it has been my goal to give my patients a healthy, beautiful smile they can be proud of. My philosophy is to provide my patients with the highest quality orthodontic care with exceptional service by going the extra mile before, during, and after their treatment. I am inspired when I see changes in my patients, both in how their smiles improve and how their self-confidence grows.

Education and Continuing Education:
Doctorate of Dental Surgery – University of Missouri Kansas City
Master of Science – University of Illinois at Chicago
Orthodontic Certificate – University of Illinois at Chicago
Continuing education is the key to improving how I practice orthodontics and keep up-to-date with more advanced treatment techniques. We are always improving the way we help patients to have better and more comfortable treatment experience. At Holliday Orthodontics, we are always increasing our knowledge of Invisalign® clear aligners and various methods of self-ligating bracket technology.

Honors and Community Involvement

I have been fortunate enough to have received several honors that reflect my work as an orthodontist. I was voted as one of Honolulu's Best Dentists in the 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012 publications of Honolulu Magazine.I am also involved in many community events. Most recently, I was featured in Midweek and the Honolulu Advertiser for a beach clean-up event coordinated by Honolulu dentists on the 5th of July at the Ala Moana Beach Park.
