Following dental school, Dr. Jen served as a dentist in the United States Army for five years providing care to service members. During her time in the military, she was stationed at Fort Benning (now Fort Moore), Georgia, where she completed a one-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry. She was then stationed at Fort Leonard Wood, MO. The experience, camaraderie, and professional growth the Army provided was unforgettable and a valued part of her career, but Dr. Jen and her husband always planned to settle down and establish roots for their family close to home.
Dr. Jen is a member of the American Dental Association, the Illinois State Dental Society, the Chicago Dental Society, and the McHenry County Dental Society. She is an avid life-long learner and attends continuing education whenever possible to stay up-to-date with evidence-based treatments and products for her patients.
Outside of dentistry, Dr. Jen cherishes time with her husband and their two young daughters. She enjoys gardening, trail walks, reading, and listening to podcasts.
