Colleen
Certified Dental Assistant
I stay busy each day by assisting our hygienists and doctors with whatever they need. I often take X-rays, handle charting, and assist our practice in whatever way is needed. I love interacting with and catching up with our patients; they are all so interesting! I have received my Coronal Polishing Certificate.
In my spare time, I enjoy relaxing with my husband, daughter, and grandchildren on our boat, love taking trips to the islands, and also spending time in the gym. I consider myself a true foodie!

In doing this, we strive to help our patients receive and maintain their best oral health care needs. Other responsibilities I have include assisting our business administrator with duties such as assembling accounts payable, insurance explanations, and benefit remittances. I also help Dr. Stefano and team to organize and prepare the agendas for our weekly team meetings.

As one of the team of hygienists, I help keep our family of patients’ teeth sparkling clean. I like working for Stefano Dental because it gives me a change of pace and a stream of new faces, and keeps me on my toes. I LOVE dentistry for the diversity of people, which means a diversity in teeth; not one mouth is the same. I love challenges, and when patients return for preventive maintenance, their teeth are in better health from what I have done.
I am happily married to my husband, Corey, since 2007. We have two beautiful children. I like to garden, cook, and watch our kids in their many sports activities.
