Plaintiff Sinedou S. Tuufuli appeals from the trial court’s order granting defendant West Coast Dental Administrative Services, LLC’s (West Coast Dental) motion to compel arbitration of Tuufuli’s individual claims and to dismiss Tuufuli’s class claims.  The only issue Tuufuli raises on appeal is whether the court correctly found the parties’ arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).  As we explain, the court correctly found the FAA governs the parties’ arbitration agreement because they agreed to be bound by the act.  We therefore affirm the order granting West Coast Dental’s motion to compel arbitration of Tuufuli’s individual claims and to dismiss her class claims.
