Gaby

Front Office - Member since 2019

Gabriella has been loving her new life in Washington after her move out West in Febuary of 2018 from Saginaw, Michigan. Light Dental Studios has felt like a home away from home and the friendships she has already built while working as a front office admin will be life long.

Previously, Gaby has worked as an office admin at a periodontal surgeons office and she is working towards becoming a dental hygienist in the near future. Her absolute favorite part of working in dental is the bright smiles of all her patients. When she's not working, Gaby likes to read and write, play with her cat Clementine, work on computers, and hike through the beautiful Pacific North West!

Amber, RDA

Dental Assistant - Member since 2022

Amber grew up in Auburn, Washington as an only child but has always loved to be social. She played softball and the flute through middle and high school which gave her positive outlets to be a part of cooperative team atmospheres. In high school she was also a part of the sports medicine program for two years and was interested in pursuing a career in the medical field ever since.

After graduating, Amber studied pre-nursing at WSU for two years, then came back to the west side to be with family. She began working as a CNA while pursuing nursing school. About six months into working at an assisted living facility, the pandemic began and changed the dynamics drastically. She continued working for a few months before taking a break to reevaluate her career. She then went back to school at Bellevue College to finish her General Associates degree.

Now with more adult life experiences and opportunities to learn so much about herself, Amber has come to realize how much she appreciates a good work/life balance and positive social interaction. The dental field has many of the career components that fit what she wanted for her life and she has met some amazing people in her time at Light Dental Studios. They work hard and take great care of those around them - just like family.

A happy smile can do a lot to improve people's days and genuinely brings Amber joy to see, so she is excited to have found a home at Light Dental Studios to help others take care of their teeth and brighten their smiles. In her off-time, she like to go camping or be by a body of water, be creative, listen to music, and spend time with family.
