Administrative Team


Nayomie Z. – Administrative Office Manager and Treatment Coordinator

I love to find ways to help people smile and that includes building confidence to share their smiles! I am here to answer your questions, plan for appointments, and help you in any way I can. During my 16 years in dentistry, I have become well versed in both the administration side as well as the clinical aspects of care. I am here to guide you through your dental journey and it is my goal to make sure you have a positive experience. In my free time, I love to go on hikes with my husband Felipe and son Nathan and I enjoy cooking for my friends and family. My favorite place to be is on the lake enjoying the sun! My life’s motto is “Today will be a good day”.
