I was born and raised on a crop farm in Lamar, Colorado with my brother and parents. I have been married to my wonderful husband Thom since 1999 and have two beautiful sons, Thomas and Nolan. I feel very fortunate to have been "acquired property" when Dr. Esposito purchased the practice. I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Esposito since September of 2000 and am currently the implant coordinator and surgical assistant. I am advanced cardiac life support certified and certified by the American Academy of Oral Maxillofacial Surgery in office anesthesia. I feel lucky to work with an amazing, talented and compassionate doctor and a team of women who are dedicated to providing exceptional patient care.

I am a Denver native and the youngest of 3 girls.  I have been married to a wonderful man for 25 years and we have one son, Rem who is 22.  My career in dentistry began 34 years ago after finishing the dental assisting program through Emily Griffith.  I had the privilege of beginning my career with an awesome dentist who I remained with until his retirement 25 years later.  After so many years in the Prosthetic field, I was fortunate enough to become a team member with Dr. Esposito. In 2005 I was promoted to Office Manager.  I am thoroughly enjoying it and feel very fortunate for the opportunities Dr Esposito has provided me with.  He has been an excellent educator, physician and dentist and has an awesome staff to work with.  When not at work, I enjoy camping and traveling as often as possible and sewing and entertaining while at home.

I am thankful to have been a part of Dr. Esposito’s surgical team since June 2004. Daily, I take pride in learning from Dr. Esposito and being able to work with him as he provides outstanding care to his patients and dedicates his time and energy to the education and well-being of his team. My life is centered on the values of faith, family, health and education. I grew up in the Littleton with my twin sister and two younger brothers, amongst many cousins and relatives, and I continue to devote much of my time to my family whom is a blessing to me. I was married in 2005 to Derek and we enjoy being with family, friends, and participating in outdoor activities with our golden retriever, Duke. I thrive on being an athlete and living a healthy lifestyle and am able to fulfill my competitive edge by participating in various triathlons. My other passion includes being around kids and I find great joy in being the coach of a girls U9 competitive soccer team. In addition to athletics and coaching, my time has been spent as a student at the University of Colorado at Denver. I graduated in May 2007 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and plan on continuing my education in the medical field.
