I am new to the dental world but very much excited to be a part of Dr. Asano’s staff. I have spent the last 20 years in the car industry, most of them as a Finance Manager. I was looking for a change of pace and believe me, I got it. I know that I will really enjoy working here; the patients and staff are a lot of fun to be around and make the day fly on by. When I am not at work I spend most of my time with my family - My husband Randy and two beautiful girls, Samantha, 11 and Morgan, 8.

I have been a chair side assistant with Dr. Asano for the past 9 years, and I can honestly say I love my job. The best part about working here is meeting all of our patients - we have a lot of fun. It seems like I spend most of my day laughing and telling jokes! Outside of work I spend most of my time with my family - my husband Adam and two wonderful kids, Mitchell and Greta and of course my dog Gertie. I love living in the U.P. because I get to spend a lot of time outdoors hiking, snowshoeing, or just enjoying a day at the park with my kids. I look forward to meeting you at your next appointment!

I have been in the dental field for 17 years and an orthodontic chair side assistant for the last 7 years. I am originally from Gaylord and moved to Marquette in 1997. I live in Gwinn with my husband Rex, my son Jack, my daughter Willow and my two golden retrievers Remington and Marlo. When I am not busy with my family and work, I enjoy playing co-ed softball with my husband and camping with my family and friends during the summer.

I am a chair side assistant and a graduate of Dental Assisting School of Appleton, WI. I have been with Dr. Asano’s practice for almost 4 years and absolutely love it here. A few of the aspects I love about my job are the patients and the age range we work with. I also love my co-workers, they have become like a second family to me. I am looking forward to many years with this practice and am very excited to be a part of it. Originally, from Marquette, I could not wait to return to the U.P. and all the great outdoor activities it has to offer. I enjoy spending time with my dogs and we are always up for an outdoor adventure!

I started working at Dr. Asano’s practice July 2010. I was born and raised in Negaunee, MI. I graduated in May 2010 from Northern Michigan University with a degree in Health Information Processing. I also took the Fundamentals of Dental Assisting class through MAPS Adult Enrichment classes in 2009. It’s great to come to work every day and work with the patients and my co-workers. In the summer when I’m not working I love to be outside. I play softball for Negaunee Iron Range Women’s Slow Pitch League and love it!
