Born and raised in South Canterbury, Emma loves being able to work in the community she calls home. She has found her passion in the dental industry and relishes the challenge of turning a visit that many people dread into a positive experience, taking the time to help patients feel relaxed, comfortable, and genuinely looked after. Whether it’s a friendly chat, making someone laugh, or sometimes even just holding a hand, she believes the little things can make a big difference and loves seeing patients leave feeling more confident than when they arrived.

Outside of work, she is a self-proclaimed “crazy cat lady” who enjoys spending time with her 3 cats (and fiancé as well) whilst persuing for any more cats in need of a good home. She has a relaxed, easygoing nature and a good sense of humour, and enjoys the simple things in life. She’s a fan of classic rock and creative expression and likes keeping life outside the clinic pretty low-key.
