My Story

 Currently serving as an Attending Pediatric Dentist at Children's Hospital Colorado and Denver Health Pediatric Dental Residencies. I teach to those who are specializing in treating children, teens, and those with special health care needs. My expertise lies in pediatric dentistry, public health dentistry, and epidemiology. I am supported by a solid academic foundation, including a DMD from UAB School of Dentistry, an MSPH in Epidemiology from the UAB School of Public Health, and an MSD from the University of Washington.   With experience in public health and pediatric dentistry, I have researched the intersection of oral health and epidemiology, culminating in a master's thesis on the impact of poor oral health on child mortality. I have recently continued my academic journey in bioethics at Loyola University in Chicago in January 2026.  Outside of work, I am a partner, dedicated wife, and ski bud to pilot and author, David Bachler, a Captain with United Airlines.
