Originally from the beautiful mountain regions of Utah and Colorado, Dr. Massouda grew up with a strong love for family, community, and the outdoors. She earned her undergraduate degrees in Sociology and Spanish from the University of Louisville, where she discovered her passion for the connection between oral health and overall well-being.
She went on to receive her dental degree from the University of Kentucky through the U.S. Army Health Professions Scholarship Program, using her Spanish fluency to serve Hispanic and underserved rural communities throughout Kentucky.
Dr. Massouda completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry (AEGD) residency at Joint Base Lewis-McChord in Washington before serving four years in Germany, where working alongside an orthodontist sparked her passion for orthodontics.
After her military service, she earned her orthodontic certificate from UNC-Chapel Hill, focusing on family-centered, interdisciplinary care and researching dog-assisted therapy for pediatric dental patients. Outside the office, she enjoys hiking and biking with her family, training her miniature schnauzer, Rocco, and exploring international cuisines. She is passionate about creating healthy, confident smiles.
