I am originally from Dundee, Scotland and I graduated in 2004. I spent the following 5 years working in Edinburgh and Dundee working in both NHS practices and the Community Dental Service treating dentally anxious and special needs patients. I also completed my membership exams (MFDS) with the Royal College of Surgeons in Edinburgh.

I moved to Hawkes Bay in 2009 for a 2-year working holiday and loved it so much that I decided to stay in the Bay. I consider New Zealand to be home now. I worked in private practices up there and was a member of our local New Zealand Dental Association. Our family made the decision to move to Christchurch this year and I started with Longhurst Dental in February.

I am interested in all areas of dentistry and I aim to provide quality dentistry in a safe and comfortable environment. I regularly attend dental courses and conferences to keep up with the latest innovations and techniques.

Outside of dentistry, I spend my time with our young family experiencing everything that Christchurch has to offer. I have always loved to travel and I am looking forward to exploring a new Island!
