Meet Our Dental Team – Forest Park, OH

Jessica, Dental Office Manager

For the last few years, Jessica has been our stellar operations manager. That said, she’s worked in dentistry for roughly thirty years now! Her experience in the field is thus extensive. Furthermore, she tempers that background with training in business and leadership. As such, she passionately collaborates with our team to provide top-tier dental care.

Raised in Carlisle, Jessica loves to live it up in her downtime. That often means going to the horse show arena or a local sporting event. Otherwise, you’ll likely find her hanging out with family and friends. That especially applies to her kids, boyfriend, dog, and cat.

Maryssa, Treatment Coordinator

A native of Cincinnati, Maryssa has been in the field of dentistry for some time now. Before working at the practice, she attended the University of Cincinnati and earned her Bachelors in Psychology. As a Treatment Coordinator, you’ll find her helping around the office and managing patient accounts so that they can be set to receive the exceptional dental care they deserve.

At home, Maryssa spends much of her time with her husband and their son. Whenever she isn’t helping patients reach their smile goals, she is likely trying new restaurants due to her great passion for food! Chinese food and wings are her favorite kinds of meals. She also enjoys traveling—only to places with a beach—as well as watching sports like baseball, basketball, and football.

Her family loves traveling to Florida and kicking back at the lake in Georgia. She also likes to read and binge-watch crime documentaries. An interesting thing about her: she seems extroverted when she’s actually an introvert!

Chris, Dental Hygienist

Born in nearby Cincinnati, Chris is a fantastic dental hygienist. She has over a decade of prior dental work to prove it! Plus, her degree in dental hygiene from Oklahoma State University reinforces this fact. Most importantly, though, she believes in her work and likes educating patients on dental hygiene.

One of the most rewarding things for her is being able to provide our patients with a positive and comfortable dental experience while achieving their smile goals.

At home, Ashleigh spends much of her time with her husband, their three wonderful boys, and their miniature dachshund named Macie. She also very much enjoys golfing, traveling, watching her boys play sports, and hanging out at the beach. One interesting thing about her: she used to be a figure skater!
