Devin is a myofunctional therapist with a strong academic foundation, holding a Bachelor’s degree in Dental Hygiene from Old Dominion University and a Master’s degree in Healthcare Administration from UNC Wilmington.
Introduced to myofunctional therapy three years ago while working as a clinical dental hygienist, Devin quickly developed a passion for addressing sleep-disturbed breathing and related disorders. Under the guidance of a forward-thinking dentist, Devin honed the skills to recognize and manage myofunctional disorders, specializing in combining myofunctional therapy and oral appliances to help reduce symptoms of sleep apnea in children and adults.
When not helping clients improve their quality of life through therapy, Devin enjoys spending time with his four beloved dogs: an eleven-year-old Maltese, a three-year-old miniature schnauzer, a one-and-a-half year-old German Shepherd, and a one-year-old Aussie Doodle.
