Meet the Team

Born and raised in Queens, New York, I am and always will be a city girl. I graduated from New York University College of Dentistry in 2009 and then completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency in Mesa, Arizona before moving here to Austin in June of 2010. I practiced as an associate dentist at Plum Creek Dental in Lockhart, Texas from 2010-2015. From there, I was fortunate to bring my dental vision of personalized; friendly oral care to the East Austin Neighborhood of Rosewood in March of 2016. Building my own practice with the latest dental technology has been the fulfillment of a long-standing personal dream. It has long been my goal to ensure maximum comfort for my patients while providing the best dental health care available.

I am a proud mother of two daughters and love that I get to raise them in the vibrant city of Austin. Living here, I’ve found that being able to spend time outdoors in the sunshine taking walks along hike and bike trails which has made my everyday pretty spectacular. I enjoy yoga classes from heated vinyasa sculpt to yoga Nidra and am an active participant in Austin’s foodie culture. It's these balances – city-country, work-life, active-indulgent – that make Austin an incredibly endearing place to call home and I am very pleased to open my dental practice in East Austin. Stop by for a visit anytime!

“We strive to create a no-pressure, technically advanced, low-stress environment, with exceptional customer service. Yes, we create AMAZING smiles at our office, however at the end of the day we want our reputation to be built around our relationships with our patients and our quality dental care – specifically, a friendly and approachable manner that allows for an open discussion of dental health and related goals.” – Dr. Shah

My name is Jahfi Jarrett and I am excited to be a part of your Sunny Days Dental care team. I graduated from New York University College of Dentistry, with a Bachelors in Dental Hygiene. As a Dental Hygienist, I am passionate about being a support system and advocate to help my patients achieve the healthiest and brightest smile of their lives.

I was born in Hartford, Connecticut but when I was three, my family moved to Jamaica and I spent most of my childhood on that wonderful island. Since then, I have lived in Miami, Los Angeles and New York. I am so proud to now call beautiful Austin, Texas my home.

I have been blessed with the best husband and daughter imaginable. Experiencing life with them is a magical journey that I get to enjoy everyday. My partner and I met in Austin, my daughter is Austinite, so I am thrilled to give my best to a city that has given so much to me.

In my free time you will find me dancing at music shows of all genres. I also enjoy watching football and soccer games live, as well as trying out the newest culinary delights around town. I have done a lot of international traveling and am excited to continue doing so and seeing the rest of the world.

I look forward to meeting and getting to know you in the near future. I am ready to answer all of your questions and come up with a plan of action personalized to your and your dental goals. See you soon!

My name is Alicia and I was born in Chicago. I have been a dental assistant for 3 years and am excited to be a part of Sunny Days Dental team. During my free time you will find me fishing and playing pickleball. I am a huge Chicago Sports fan, go Bulls!! Spending time with my family is very important to me so I plan on flying back to Chicago to visit as much as possible. I moved to Austin in 2022 and am enjoying exploring a new city and experiencing what Austin has to offer! Next time you come in give me a a few suggestions of your favorite things to do!

I grew up in Austin, Texas and naturally I am a huge Texas Longhorns fan! I have been in the dental field for five years and have a passion for working chairside. I enjoy helping patients look and feel their best. When I'm not in the dental practice... I'm working out at the gym or paddle boarding on the lake. I really enjoy spending time outdoors, especially watching Texas sunsets. Lady Bird Lake and the Greenbelt are my absolute favorite trails around town. I love spending time with my daughter, Azaileah,and our two dogs Princess and Haze. Summer is our favorite time of year.

I visited Austin with my family back in 2015 and decided that I had to live here and had to go to The University of Texas at Austin; the city and the campus, both, drew me in. Austin is the perfect place to be outdoors with my dog, Carl (as long as it's not summer). I love the small town feel on a big city scale. Yes, I am a California implant, but I did live in Texas before it was "cool", back when I was two, and before my family moved to Canada when I was eight. I've never stayed in place for very long, having gone to 7 different schools, and two different countries, before graduating high school.
I am a film and television nerd. If you ever want to talk about what's in theatres right now, I've probably seen it and could chat for hours. I don't have a favorite movie of all time, but do have favorite movies of any particular season. Some of my best days are spent buying tickets for three consecutive movies and just chilling out all day at the theatre.
I also play Magic the Gathering, Commander, weekley with different play groups. My current deck that I am playing is Kukusho, the Evening Star. Wanna bring a deck and play while you wait? I'm down.
Professionally, I care deeply about a patient's relationship to their health and health care providers, and strive to help all people access the care they need, free of judgment or restrictions. We each deserve to take care of ourselves how we individually see fit, and I am here to help you accomplish that goal.
