I have been a member of the Avery Family Dentistry team since March 2014. I began my journey as a receptionist, advanced to office coordinator, and now proudly serve as the office manager. Born and raised in Waukegan, I am bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish. I’m one of the smiling faces you’ll see at the front desk, and I truly enjoy working in the dental field while building relationships with our wonderful family of patients.
My own beautiful smile came from this very office, which makes it easy for me to share my personal experience and educate patients about ClearCorrect. I hold an Associate of Arts degree and attended DeVry University in Gurnee, Illinois, as well as the College of Lake County in Grayslake, Illinois. I am passionate about continuing to grow in my profession and regularly attend continuing education courses and seminars.

I’ve been a part of the Avery Family Dentistry team since 2023. As a dental assistant, I support Dr. Avery during procedures and assist at the front desk when needed. My favorite part of my role is helping patients feel comfortable and confident when they visit us, and supporting them in achieving their smile goals.
I’m passionate about continuing my education in dentistry and am working toward becoming a dental hygienist—fingers crossed!
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with friends and family, and with my dog, Hachi. I like staying active by going to the gym, taking dance classes, and I hope to participate in marathons in the future. I’m also a big foodie and love trying new restaurants—recommendations are always welcome!

I have been a member of the Avery Family Dentistry team since August 2024. I am bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish, which allows me to connect with and support a wider range of patients. I have a passion for arts and crafts and enjoy expressing creativity in my everyday life.
I love expanding my knowledge in dentistry and take pride in helping patients feel confident in their smiles while understanding the positive impact that routine cleanings have on their overall health.
In my free time, I enjoy creating lasting memories with my kids and partner. I also love trying new foods, riding roller coasters, and watching horror movies.

I’ve been part of the Avery Family Dentistry team since December 2025, where I work as an office assistant at the front desk. I enjoy connecting with our patients and learning about their lives—whether it’s their families, pets, or exciting places they’ve visited or plan to explore.
Outside of the office, I love crocheting, discovering new places, and spending time with my cat, Luna. I’m currently pursuing a career in business administration and enjoy continuing to learn and grow in the field every day.
