- I am currently the Office Manager/Treatment Coordinator for an Orthodontist in Redmond, WA. I have been in dentistry for over 20 years and love it! I started as an expanded duties dental assistant and moved up to the front desk, then into orthodontics! Educating my patients is my passion...helping them to understand why they should proceed with treatment is fun and exciting to me...especially seeing the end results I help to create! Beautiful, healthy smiles for life is my personal goal for my patients! The relationships I develop easily help to make each day even more enjoyable! I have so many treasured friendships now through these relationships. Makes me smile!
