I LOVE MAKING A DIFFERENCE FOR THESE KIDS.

“I think Emily is probably one of the most giving, compassionate people that I’ve ever met. Not even just as an orthodontist, but as a person. She just sees the good in people and wants to pay it forward, and I feel like that’s just so kind hearted for her to do those things.”
