MEET THE TEAM

Hello there! I have been with PLO since June of 2019! I first was a sterilization tech / orthodontist assistant here. I even was a patient from 2020-2022. Outside of work, some of my hobbies include: mountain biking, going to music festivals, and karaoke. I also love being by the water any chance I get: fishing, swimming, boating with friends, tubing/floating the river, etc. I also enjoy spending time with my husband, Alex, and our son. I am a native Texan and grew up near Austin but in 2017 I chose to make Austin my home and absolutely love it here.

Receptionist & Insurance Coordinator
Hi y'all! I'm fairly new to Austin; my husband and I moved here in 2020 so he could get his PhD in Physics at UT Austin. We enjoy playing card games/board games and watching movies together. I started working at PLO in August of 2022, and I am loving it. In my free time, I enjoy doing nail art, tatting (old lace-making art), and listening to audiobooks, so feel free to tell me your favorite book recommendations next time you're in the office! My husband and I are also thrilled to be having our first child this summer; our little boy is due in July and we are so excited to be parents!

Orthodontist Assistant
Jade
Hello, my name is Jade, and I am one of the Orthodontist Assistants here at PLO. I first started in general dentistry, but then grew a strong love for orthodontics with the help of my team. Outside of work I enjoy traveling, designing clothes, and spending time with my family. I pay close attention to detail, so you will always be in good hands while in the chair with me.
