Clinical Team
Our clinical team is made up of professionally trained orthodontic assistants, who work closely with our orthodontists to carry out your treatment plan. They assist with braces placements, adjustments, removals, and are a great resource for answering many of your questions about your care.

One of the things I enjoy most about work is how everyone works together as a team. I am so thankful for the friendships I have built here! Coming into the office knowing I will be around people who can make me laugh and lift my mood is something I truly value.
Outside of work I am a person who absolutely love animals. I find so much joy in visiting zoos and learning about different species. If I am not at a zoo or baking treats, I am probably curled up in bed watching Disney movies with my dog, who is basically my daughter.

I have been interested in dentistry since I was a kid. I like to make our office inviting and help people feel welcomed and at ease. I love every moment working at this office with such great orthodontists and teammates who enlighten me and make me happy.Outside of the office, I am mostly sleeping. Other than that, I really enjoy baking and taking in scenic views. Music speaks to me, and I listen on repeat. I am very small, but have a huge, warm heart!

I have been a part of Team Braces since 2022! My love for dentistry, especially orthodontics, has only grown more ever since I started. I get to enjoy working alongside the best doctors ever and my fellow coworkers that I always have the best time with. Outside of work, I love to do anything and everything! I do it all from any hiking trails, beach views, trying new foods, going out, and hanging out with family/friends. You will always catch me with a smile on my face!

Orthodontic Assistant
I have been with the Braces family since January 2025, but have been in the orthodontic industry for about six years. What inspired me to join orthodontics, is the ability to create beautiful smiles and life changing results! My short time with the Brace family has been amazing. Everyone has been very welcoming and makes me feel like family. Being with this team does not feel like work because I enjoy interacting with the patients and getting to know them along the way to their perfect smile.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family! We enjoy going to Disneyland, nature walks around parks, and trying new foods. When I have extra free time, my newest hobby has been coloring!

I have been with the Braces family since January 2024. It has been an exciting journey, and I am so grateful to be part of such an amazing team. In fact, I recently started my own braces journey in January 2025 after seeing the incredible transformations happening here. I never thought I would have the chance to achieve the perfect smile myself, but now I am experiencing it firsthand! In addition, I love meeting new patients and helping them work toward their dream smile. One of the best parts of my job is seeing the progress patients make and catching up with them at each appointment to watch their smiles improve.
In my free time, you will find me hanging out with friends, shopping with my mom, exploring new food and drink spots, going on outdoor runs with friends, or giving my car some TLC with detailing and washing!
