Alix J Leemin

She spent her childhood years living in Portland and Seoul, splitting her time between the hustling city of Gangnam and the quaint charm of Beaverton and Tigard where she built her tree forts and learned to skateboard. Later during her college years, she even wandered off to live in Paris where she developed a growing appetite for French cuisine and desserts, while working as a student-chef at the Ritz Escoffier culinary school. After all the exciting adventures, Dr. Leemin knew that her ultimate passion rested in crafting beautiful smiles, and returned to the stateside to pursue her childhood dreams in orthodontics.

After graduating from Stanford University with a Bachelor of Arts with Honors, she embarked on her career in dentistry at University of Pennsylvania, where she graduated #1 in her class. Feeling just a little too ambitious, she then completed 2.5 years of additional training at OHSU to become an orthodontic specialist.
