Born into a dental family, Marie-Catherine loved visiting her father at his periodontics practice in Calgary. Seeking a career of her own, she completed a Bachelor of Science with honours in Biology in Nova Scotia while also exploring her creativity through music and art. Marie-Catherine realized that dentistry offered a perfect balance of science, art, and human connection. She returned to complete her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree at the University of Alberta, where she earned several awards and helped organize community outreach programs.
After graduation, Marie-Catherine practiced general dentistry in Cochrane, where she especially enjoyed the family-oriented aspect of the work. She also receives ongoing weekly mentorship from her father in comprehensive care, surgery, and dental implants at his clinic in Calgary. Marie-Catherine continues to attend conferences and courses to stay current with the latest theories and technologies.
Wanting to be closer to home in Calgary, Marie-Catherine is thrilled to work with Dr. Kellen Smith at The Assembly Dental & Wellness. She takes a patient-centered approach to dental care and empowers her patients to make well-informed decisions about their health. Like Dr. Smith, she strives to make patients feel comfortable in the chair—whether by communicating in French or using humor, she finds ways to connect beyond their teeth.
In her spare time, Marie-Catherine enjoys exploring Calgary’s amazing bicycle paths and golf courses. She also loves mountain road trips for skiing or hiking with friends. On cold winter nights, you can find her at an open mic, singing and playing guitar as a singer-songwriter.
