Meet the Team

Diem

I am originally from Vietnam. I have been working as a dental hygienist for 16 years & I’m looking forward to many more to come. I received my college education from both Virginia Commonwealth University & Northern Virginia Community College. I am also certified in CPR & often volunteer through Hope for Tomorrow. I am married with three wonderful children. When I am not busy at the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, traveling & cooking. If I were an animal, I would be a tiger because they are decisive, aggressive & leaders.

Ashley: Assistant Operations Manager

I graduated magna cum laude with a B.S. in Cellular, Molecular & Physiological Biology from Christopher Newport University. I have been in the dental field all of my life. As a little girl, my dad brought me into the office to assist him on emergency cases. I quickly fell in love with the medical field. Medicine is like a puzzle, the signs & symptoms are the pieces that fit together to develop a diagnosis. There is so much joy in being able to find the answer & change someone’s life. I am partnering with my parents to develop a nonprofit so we can continue to make a difference through our mission work around the world. If I were an animal, I would be a dolphin because I love the water & am very adventurous.

“The ever-present smile of the Dolphin is there to remind us that the best way to integrate our intellects, our emotions & our actions is through the simple act of playing.” – Steven D. Farmer, Ph.D.

Elsi: Patient Coordinator

I am from El Salvador & I love helping others out. Someone’s smile is the first thing that catches my eye & for that reason, I decided to work in the dental field. I love working in a place that will help people achieve the smile they deserve. I enjoy having a good laugh & trying new things out. If I could be any animal, I would be a butterfly because they grow into something beautiful & colorful.

Daniela: Patient Coordinator

I was born and raised in Honduras. I moved to the US 8 years ago. I love helping others the same way help was given to me. In my free time I like to cook and bake. I believe food is the universal language of love. If I were to be an animal I would be a mother hen because no matter the circumstances they will go above and beyond to protect the ones they love.

Alexis: Dental Assistant

I am a graduate of Virginia State University. I majored in Biology with my mind set on dentistry. I strive to be able to serve others by making sure they’re confident & feel beautiful with their smile. Serving people one smile at a time has been my motto since high school & will be forever! If I could be any animal, it would be an elephant. They’re empathetic toward others, have the ability to adapt to any new environment & work according to the culture & system of a place.

Susana: Dental Assistant

I have been working as a Dental Assistant for 22 years. I have had the opportunity to work with Dr. Robert A. Morabito since he became a dentist 20 years ago, & I also worked with his father, Dr. Peter A. Morabito. He inspired me to become a missionary so I could share my knowledge & serve others. I remember asking him, “What do I need to do to become a missionary?” & he replied, “Have faith & love your neighbor.” About 10 years ago I started going on missions myself & I founded my own charity, Healthy Teeth Journey of Hope, in 2016. If I could be an animal, I would be a dove who could travel anywhere to bring love, care & peace.

Kaylee: Dental Assistant

I was born & raised in Virginia & my parents are from El Salvador. I am very excited to start my career in the dental field & to have an opportunity to learn something new every day. I love helping others & interacting with patients.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my children, relaxing at home & binge-watching shows. If I were an animal, I would be a dog. Dogs symbolize kindness & are gentle to those around them. They are friendly but they are also protective of their loved ones.

Vicky: Dental Assistant

I was born in Arlington, VA but raised in Mclean, VA. Ever since I was a little girl I have always had a great passion for helping people and giving back to my community. Making people feel comfortable and of course making people smile is truly what I love to do and with that being said why not dentistry. I love to set goals for myself on a daily basis all to show my four incredible children that anything that you set your mind to is possible. My children are truly my motivation and for them I will forever give my career my all to be able to give them everything they need and want.
If I could be any animal I would be a tiger. Tigers symbolize power, courage, And not to mention they are truly and simply beautiful fearless protectors.
