With over 10 years of customer service experience, Sheba joins the PSP team as Eastlake’s Treatment Coordinator. Coming from the world of coffee, she made a career change to pursue her passion for helping others feel confident again. In her free time, Sheba enjoys spending time with her daughter, outdoor activities, and traveling.
She finished her Bachelor of Sciences degree in Biological Sciences, cum laude, at the University of the Pacific in 3 years and then went on to earn her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree with Honors at the University of the Pacific, Arthur A. Dugoni, School of Dentistry in San Francisco, California. She fell in love with periodontal surgery as she was shadowing her mother's periodontist while in dental school. Being the only applicant for periodontics residency in her class, she managed to do multiple periodontal surgeries in a dental school clinic before entering her residency.
Dr. Cha then completed an advanced specialty training program in Periodontics and Dental Implant Surgery at Oregon Health and Science University (OHSU) School of Dentistry in Portland, Oregon. She was a recipient of the Best Resident Research Award at OHSU.

Dr. Nordlie offers comprehensive periodontal services, including gum disease treatment, dental implants, and cosmetic procedures. He enjoys building relationships with patients and creating personalized treatment plans that lead to lasting, confident smiles.
Outside of work, Dr. Nordlie loves hiking, skiing, and spending time with his wife, family, and friends.
