Meet Your Scottsdale Dental Team

I started my career in dentistry as a dental assistant, and have over 14 total years of experience in dentistry. What I learned clinically as an assistant gives me great insight into my role as office manager.

Dentistry has allowed me to grow with the patients I serve. I enjoy making a difference and am proud to be part of a team that genuinely cares.

Away from the office, I enjoy movie nights and cooking. It may seem strange, but I find a spontaneous binge cleaning of the house to be extremely enlightening!

Dentistry has been a big part of my life and I love what I do. I am a happy person and feel like my job allows me to put people at ease. I like to see people smile and I enjoy smiling back.

For relaxation, I like to try new wines and find myself preparing meals quite often for my family. There is nothing better than spending time with those you love.

I enjoy a sense of community and cherish the “small town” feel that I grew up with.

I have been in dentistry for nearly 30 years. I spent the first 20 years of my career as a dental assistant and the last decade as an insurance specialist.

I love many things about dentistry, but most of all, I love meeting new people. I am a people person. I love helping patients overcome their dental fears, and I love seeing the instant confidence a new smile can deliver.

For fun, I relish spontaneous trips, laughing, and spending quality time with my family and friends. One interesting fact about me is that I know more about football than most men.

I enjoy helping patients. I put a lot of effort in making people more comfortable and relaxed while at the dentist office. In fact, I even have some patients “excited” to come see me. I think that says something about the pride and joy I take in my role as a hygienist. I’m not tired of doing this…I actually love it.

In my leisure, I enjoy Yoga, travel, and spending time with my family. We try to go back to New York every summer, which is a nice break from the Arizona heat.

You might not ever guess it, but previously I was in the United States Army Reserves.

I have been a dental assistant for 10 exciting years. I love being a dental assistant and I find great satisfaction in my career when I see a patient’s confidence being restored with a beautiful smile! There is nothing more valuable to me than to make a difference in someone’s life, and I look forward to daily making an impact with the patients I see.

I enjoy playing with my dog Mia and cat Milo. In my spare time, I enjoy riding horses, hiking, and traveling to all parts of the country.

One interesting fact about me is that I am also a licensed cosmetologist!

I’m originally from Bulgaria, and I moved to beautiful Arizona in 1999. This was a big positive change for me and my family.

I find myself so fortunate to have found dentistry as a career, and absolutely love what I do. For more than 6 years now I have been able to help patients improve their smiles and be happier in their lives.

I also enjoy a great workout, traveling, being outdoors, cooking, and even have recently been dabbling in interior design.

One thing you may find interesting about me is that I fluently speak 3 different languages!
