We are proud to have Dr. Grace leading our Modern Kids Dentistry Nicholasville location. Originally from Paducah, KY, she came to Lexington in 2000 where she attended the University of Kentucky. During her undergraduate years, she was a resident advisor and studied abroad for one semester in Morelia, Mexico. In 2005, she graduated from the University of Kentucky with Bachelor of Science degrees in Biology and Spanish. Dr. Grace then went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Medicine degree from the UK College of Dentistry, where she was dental school classmates with Dr. Justin Raybould. She completed a General Practice Residency at UK and then spent one year working at the Family Care Center as the dental director.

During her four years in dental school, Dr. Grace became interested in dental mission trips and traveled to Honduras four times. Combining her love for dentistry, helping others, and speaking Spanish, dental mission trips have become an important part of her life and who she is. Since 2011, each January Dr. Grace has gone on a medical/dental mission trip to Guatemala and hopes to continue this tradition for years to come. She is an active member in her church and where she taught Sunday school for 6 years.
