Meet our
exceptional team
Janice
Front Desk Coordinator
I’ve spent the last two decades of my over 25 years in the dental field with this team and I love it! Our families are the best! I particularly enjoy putting together the contests for our patients. When I’m not at the office, I’m home spending time with my husband and daughter and every type of animal I can but cats are my favorite. And you’ll see me powerwalking all over West Chester. Be sure to say “Hi” if you can catch me!
Shawn
Front Desk
I love being a part of the West Chester Orthodontics team. We really have great patients! Be sure to stop by the desk to say hi and talk about anything Disney. I have been in Chester County for most of my life so I know all the good local spots to visit. You might run into me out there with my husband and 2 sons.
Dakota
Front Desk
I had the pleasure of joining the WCO team in April of 2023 and have loved every minute of it since. I’m excited to bring my past experience from the nursing field to the practice to give our patients the best experience possible while visiting West Chester Orthodontics. I enjoy see the beautiful smiles we can achieve and interacting with our patients and their families every day. Outside of work I love to spend time with my husband and daughter or hanging around the horse barn. I love movies of any kind, especially all things Disney. I also love to root for my favorite sports teams the Eagles and the Phillies every chance I can get. If you ever want someone to chat with, you can always find me at the front desk. I’ll always try make sure you’ll leave here with a smile.

I joined the WCO team February of 2024, and have loved it ever since! I enjoy helping out patients in English or Spanish! When I’m not here, I’m playing on the soccer field or watching sports (Go Cowboys)! I also love spending time with my 2 dogs, Dallas and Xena, and my new kitten Azula!
Cat, RDH
Treatment Coordinator
I joined the West Chester Orthodontics team in 2006 after practicing as a dental hygienist for several years. My background allows me to give our patients the tools and skills to keep their smiles healthy and beautiful for a lifetime. I am honored to be part of this amazing team and look forward to guiding you through your orthodontic journey. Outside of the office, I keep very busy with my husband and 4 children playing with our dog, working in my garden and baking all sorts of yummy treats. I’d love to share some recipes with you!
Stephanie
Financial Coordinator
Here in the office I am working hard to ensure that you’re able to maximize every orthodontic benefit you have. I am no stranger when it comes to insurances and it’s my job to take the stress of understanding it all off your hands. Outside of the office I’m always doing something, whether it be playing softball, hitting a Philly sports event, grabbing a coffee at Dunkin, reading a good book, or just hanging with my friends and family. I love to be on the move! Swing by my office with any finance or insurance questions you have, or just to say hey! I look forward to seeing you at the office and helping in any way I can.

I grew up in Chester County and still reside there. I graduated from the dental assisting program at YTI in 2013 and have been working at West Chester Orthodontics ever since. When I'm not at work, I spend my time with my 2 sons playing at the park, taking walks and going to SkyZone. I enjoy building relationships with patients and can not wait to meet you at your next visit.
Kyle
Clinical Assistant
I was born and raised in Northern Virginia. I went on to study Sports Management at Old Dominion University where I served as the student manager for the school's baseball team. Following graduation in 2019, I have been coaching youth baseball and soccer for special needs students. I recently moved to Pennsylvania looking for new opportunities to apply my skills to and found the WCO team. I still stay active with sports, playing golf, working out and watching whatever sports may be on in my free time. I am a devoted Washington fan!
