Born and raised in the heart of East Vancouver, Kim grew up wanting to make a difference in other people’s lives. Witnessing her parents' hard work and determination as immigrants from Vietnam to provide a better life for their family, she was inspired to chase after her dreams. With the opportunities provided by her resilient parents, she was able to find what she was truly passionate about.

Kim is an Independent Registered Dental Hygiene Practitioner with a Bachelor of Dental Science from the University of British Columbia and has been working in private practice since 2014. Whilst working in private practice, Kim was also a clinical instructor for the Dental Hygiene Program at UBC. There she found her purpose and joy in empowering not only her clients with their oral health but also with her students.

Kim believes in the importance of integral and preventative health. Dental hygienists are primary healthcare providers who help clients improve both their oral and overall health. Building a strong rapport with a dental hygienists can help strengthen a clients confidence and well-being — not to mention, the advantage of reducing costly dental restorative treatments. Kim values each and every one of her clients and places their needs as her priority.

Now, Smile Co. Dental Hygiene is here to recreate new, memorable, positive experiences at the dental office. We hope to be a part of your healthcare team.
