While I started my career in fashion design and merchandising, Ive found my second home here at Overlake Orthodontics! From our front desk, I greet and schedule patients, making sure to help each person feel comfortable and welcomed. Dr. Lemery and our team are wonderful people, all working together to help our patients achieve amazing smiles. Im so proud to be a part of this family!
While I have lived in a few states, I am a proud Pacific Northwest native. I've been married to the love of my life, and we have been blessed with two wonderful children and a sweet little Yorkie. My interests are interior design, fashion, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.
I work with Dr. Lemery to help new patients get acquainted with the office. During the initial orthodontic evaluation, we provide detailed treatment recommendations and advise orthodontic appliance options. My many years of experience in all aspects of orthodontic practice allow me to focus my skills on new patient coordination, customer service, account management, and orthodontic insurance matters. I enjoy working with patients to coordinate the start of their orthodontic treatment. It is a joy to see their confidence increase as their smiles improve throughout the orthodontic treatment process.
I have more than 30 years of experience working in the orthodontic field, and have happily spent the past 20 of them right here! My favorite part of my job is working with our patients and seeing the awesome results we are able to achieve. Its also great to catch up with them when they come back for retainer checks, or just to visit! We have such a great team, all working together to help our patients leave smiling. I can honestly say I look forward to coming to work every day.
I am married to my wonderful husband, Kerry, and have two daughters, Brittney and Crystal. In my spare time, I love to garden, be with my family, and go boating, especially on Lake Chelan. I also enjoy volunteering at Camp Korey, a camp for children with various medical challenges and illnesses.
