Martha
Martha started out as a dental assistant in 2005 before majoring in Business Administration at Temple University in 2008. She later moved into the administrative area of dentistry, working for the University of Pennsylvania and eventually joining our team in January of 2022! So far, her favorite part of this job is that every day brings something different, from collaborating with coworkers to achieving tasks together to implementing new protocols in order to make everyone better. Everyone’s understanding of teamwork is so incredible!
Away from the office, Martha is happily married to her high school sweetheart and has two beautiful daughters. As for hobbies, she enjoys being outdoors with her family, biking, exploring new places, and creating delicious desserts when she has the free time. Originally from Colombia, she also speaks Spanish, having moved to the United States alone at the age of 19 to learn English.

Sharon has been happily married to the love of her life for over 33 years. She and her husband have two daughters and two sons-in-law. In addition to spending as much time as possible with her beautiful family, she loves cooking, participating in volunteer work, and shopping.
Diane
This former Pittsburgh girl now calls Lakewood Ranch home. Diane is happily married with 3 grown children, a daughter-in-law, and 3 grand puppies-all of them are the love of her life. She enjoys staying fit, spending time with family and friends, and soaking in everything this tropical paradise offers. Diane’s many years of dental experience will help to make your visit as enjoyable as possible.
Austin
Austin joined our practice in 2020, and he likes that he gets to be a part of such an amazing team that is so genuine and loving. He says that every day presents new challenges that constantly expand his mind and skills. After obtaining his dental assisting certification, he went on to become certified in expanded functions by passing a program at Manatee Technical College.
Austin comes from a very large and loving family…he says it’s getting to the point that he is forgetting people’s names! In his free time, he likes playing disc golf, gaming on his PC, boxing, and weightlifting.
Antonia
Antonia says that her job is all about helping people feel more confident about their smiles. She’s grateful that she’s able to do this every day thanks in large part to our fantastic team that encourages her to succeed and make her love being here! She attended Manatee Technical College for her dental training and has worked in dentistry for about a decade so far.
Antonia is originally from Hungary, and she moved to the U.S. with her parents and two brothers in 2006, right before turning 15 years old. Thanks to her parents’ hard work, everyone in the family are now American citizens. She did not speak any English when she moved here, but now she is fairly fluent and eager to learn Spanish. Outside of work, she likes being outdoors, taking her dogs for walks, working out, and painting/drawing.
