About The Arizona Staff
Hello my name is Erika I have been a dental assistant for 10 years and love working here and being part of this great team. Here is a little about myself, my favorite places are the beach and the fair, even though I don’t go in the water, and I don’t get on the rides but I do love the food! I love listening to music and hope to go to a Red-Hot Chili Peppers concert one day. I like finding new recipes to try so if you have any good ones let me know, just don’t ask me to bake anything because I will fail every time. My favorite part of my days is having dinner with my 3 kids, it is messy, noisy and perfectly chaotic every time and even our dog and lizard join us sometimes.
Hello, My name is Ileana I am our Front Office receptionist and assist in helping with patients finances. I was born and raised in Tucson and have been in the dental field for 7 years. I am current really enjoying planning my wedding with my amazing Fiancé Carlo. I also enjoy gardening and keeping up on my pool clean. I have a beautiful chocolate lab named Bailey, one of my favorite things to do is spend time with her and take her for walks.
My name is Karina, I was born in San Diego and raised in Baja California. I have been in the dental field for over 17 years. I started as a receptionist where I quickly became passionate about dentistry. This passion inspired me to further my education by becoming a dental hygienist. I joined Ismile in July 2019 and have really worked hard to make a positive impact with our patients by improving their oral health while maintaining a comfort able environment. In my spare time, I enjoy working out, traveling, and spend quality time with family and friends. She is happily married and has a daughter named Lucianna
Hello, my name is Yarelie but everyone knows me as Yare. I was born and raised in Tucson AZ. I am the youngest child and only girl of three boys. My first language was Spanish and i am very grateful for that, many of our patients are Spanish speakers, and i love to make them feel more comfortable and not so nervous. On my days off i like to go down to Mexico where we have a family ranch and disconnect from the city and social media. I have a horse that i named Spirit, like the movie “Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron ” they are very identical, hence the name. I have been interested in dentistry since i was young. I love to help people feel confident about themselves and their smile. I hope to keep expanding my knowledge and experience in dentistry, and grow with iSmile dental.
My name is Yatza I was born and raised in Tucson Arizona, with roots from Agua Prieta, Sonora. I’ve been a dental assistant for the past 2 years and recently became a hygiene assistant. It’s been a great experience thus far. My goal is to become a dental hygienist ever since I became a hygiene assistant I’ve learned so much and have become passionate for this career. On my spare time I love spending time with my family, I enjoy playing soccer and traveling.
