Meet the Team

I’ve been with Nampa Smiles since June 2005, and really do enjoy my job. I was hired with no dental experience and have learned so much since I’ve been here! I work a lot with insurance companies, trying to get accurate information so our patients can make an informed decision on their dental care. My main goal is to help any patient who may need financing options in order to complete their needed treatment! On a more personal note, my husband and I have been married since 1979. We have 3 daughters + their husbands and 8 grandchildren. Truly, I have been blessed!

I graduated from Apollo College in 2007 and have been working as an assistant at Nampa Smiles ever since. I really enjoy being able to work with people everyday and the staff here is awesome. I love being outdoors, riding dirt bikes, playing softball or just hanging out with friends and family. I was raised here in Nampa and the best part about growing up in a small city is that I am able to recognize many faces as we see patients from day to day.

Hello! I was born and raised here in Nampa,ID and don’t ever plan on leaving. I have been apart of the Nampa Smiles Family since March of 2016 and I LOVE my job as a dental assistant. My favorite part about working at Nampa Smiles is not only the amazing people I get to work with, but our amazing patients! I enjoy getting to visit and get to know each of you as you come in for visits with us! A little about me. I was married to my husband July of 2013 and we have two little pups that we love and adore! I love being in the mountains at our cabin and going for adventures. When I’m not in the mountains I love doing water color paintings, crocheting, coloring, reading, calligraphy, crafts, refurbishing furniture and spending time with my family.

Born in the city of Caldwell, raised in the country. I began working at Nampa Smiles in May 2015 and I love the staff and the patients. My hobbies are anything that involves outside in the sun with my family, and I enjoy helping others with their needs the best I can.

I am a dental assistant and enjoy helping patients. I am bilingual and enjoy being able to communicate and helping Spanish-speaking patients with their dental needs. I am happily married and we have a wonderful daughter and son. I went to Appollo College in 2007. I’ve been working here at Nampa Smiles since September of 2008. I enjoy working with the staff here.

I joined Nampa Smiles in September of 2016; I love the opportunity and growth Nampa Smiles offers. This truly is a great place to work for. I am thankful for the best coworkers and friends here. When I am not at work I enjoy being outdoors with my longtime love Ryan, we go on a lot of road trips and camping! I also love going to concerts and reading and being with friends and family on my free time. Ryan and I also have a sweet French bulldog named Axyl who we love very much!

I came to Idaho 22 years ago on a family vacation and I have yet to leave. When I'm not working, you can find me anywhere outdoors either camping or at Arrowrock. When I joined the Nampa Smiles team 7 years ago, I knew that I had found my forever home.

I was born and raised in Nampa, Idaho. I have been working at Nampa Smiles since October 2018. Our patients are all amazing, and I have the best co-workers. My favorite part of being a Dental Hygienist is being able to help people. I enjoy reading, hiking, watching movies and spending time with my friends and family.

I have been a dental hygienist at Nampa Smiles since January 2010. I graduated from the Apollo College school of Dental Hygiene in August 2009. I have been living in Idaho going on 6 years now and could not picture myself anywhere else. When I am not cleaning your teeth, I am keeping busy with my 3-year-old son Dominick. We enjoy exploring new places and taking pictures of our adventures together! I am an amateur musician in my spare time and I have been writing and recording my own music since I was 14. I consider myself a perfectionist by nature and dental hygiene is no exception. I strive to give all my patients the attention and compassion they deserve. If you are new to our office, I would like to welcome you and assure you we will do anything we can to make your visit with us as enjoyable as possible…. and if you are a returning patient, welcome back!!!

I was born in Xinhui, Guangdong, China. My family moved to the Treasure Valley when I was 7 years old and has been here ever since. I have a big family and they are my world. I graduated from Boise State in 2008 and started working at Nampa Smiles right after. I have a passion for photography and love every aspect of it. I also enjoy traveling.

I was born in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. We moved to Idaho when I was 14, and have called Nampa my home ever since. I love it here! We have the best people and best quality of life right here. I have 5 children that keep me extremely busy. I enjoy a good work out at the Rec. Center and playing softball and tennis. I am so blessed to be working with all of the fine people here at Nampa Smiles. I adore every one of them. They genuinely care about our patients and take great pride in their work. At our office, we will offer great care and compassion. Without a doubt, we have the best patients. I am very blessed to serve you.

I have been working at Nampa Smiles since January 2017. My favorite part about being a dental assistant is helping to bring back patient’s smiles. The looks on their faces when we get done helping them with dental care makes me happy. Growing up I lived in Melba and spent a lot of time being active with 4-H and FFA. Agriculture and animals are a passion of mine. In my spare time I enjoy hunting and fishing with friends and family.

I started my medical claims and billing career more than 30 years ago, and have been with Nampa Smiles since 2019. I enjoy helping patients understand and utilize their insurance benefits to get the care they need. I'm grateful to be able to work with positive and willing team members who support the work I do. My husband is a chiropractor and functional medicine provider. We have five adult children and four grandchildren. Indoors, I love to read motivational books, write novels, and paint. Outdoors I love to work in the yard, ride bikes, hike in the mountains, and go for walks with my husband. I like these things even more when I can do it in 80° weather!

I am from a Ojai, CA and moved to Nampa in 2017. I graduated from Milan Institute in 2018 and began working at Nampa Smiles shortly after. I have a wonderful husband and two amazing sons, Everett and Elliot. You can find us during football season cheering for our oldest son, who plays for Columbia High School, Go WildCats! I love being part of the wonderful community of Nampa. I look forward to building new, long lasting relationships with our patients at the 12th Ave office.

I have been working at Nampa Smiles since September 2019. I enjoy working as part of the front office team. My favorite part of the job is being the interface between patients and the clinical staff. Being born and raised in Idaho, I enjoy all the perks of this lovely state; white water rafting, camping, hunting, fishing, hiking, and a family cabin in the woods. I met my husband in 2011 and we married shortly after I graduated from NNU in 2015. We have a wonderful (and wild) son and look forward to expanding our family in the future. A few facts about me; I write novels as a hobby, I really enjoy cooking and baking for others, reading, playing guitar, and learning anything related to science. My husband and I enjoy disc golfing, mini golfing, hiking, and spending time with our family.

I was born and raised in Nampa. Raising my daughter and son in this town with my husband brings me so much joy. I have enjoyed working in dentistry since 2006. I love assisting people with their dental needs and seeing their contagious smile. I have been with Nampa Smiles since October 2019, the team of doctors and staff are the best in the valley. I love Nampa Smiles!
