Kayla
Dental Assistant
I have worked in orthodontics on and off since 2004. I am a mother to two wonderful teenage boys and spend time watching their baseball games and golf matches. In my free time, I like to spend time with family, including our dog and cat, and travel.
My favorite things about working in orthodontics are making kids laugh, meeting new people, and impacting people’s lives.
Elsie
Dental Assistant
I have been in orthodontics since 2018, while also working as a CNA. I am a mother to a lively three-year-old who keeps me very busy! In my free time, I like to work out, shop, and travel with my family.
Some of my favorite things about working in orthodontics are spending the days with lots of fun kids, making a difference in people’s smiles, and interacting with new people every day.
Alyssa
Dental Assistant
I have worked in orthodontics since 2021. I love position as it allows me to not only see patients grow more confident in their smiles but also build great relationships with them.
In my free time, I love to experiment with new recipes, read fantasy books, and take care of my plant babies.
Hailey
Office Assistant
I have worked at the front desk since June 2025. Before this, I was a high school teacher in Maquoketa. I enjoy this position as it allows me to practice my HR skills, for which I am working towards a certification.
In my free time, I like to play the cello and work with the Midwest Writing Center.
Taylor
Sterilization Technician
I have been working to help with sterilization since November 2024. I am a senior in high school and want to work in the healthcare field, so this is a wonderful transitional position for me to get comfortable with the environment.
When I am not in school, I enjoy hanging out with friends, spending time outside, shopping, and working out.
