Meet the Team

After being introduced to the dental field in high school, I decided to pursue a dental assisting career. These last 10 years as a dental assistant have propelled me to further my education to become a Registered Dental Hygienist which has brought a great sense of fulfillment & joy to my personal & professional life. I graduated from the Northern Virginia Community College Dental Hygiene Program with great honors. If I were to be an animal, I would be a horse since I’m active, a fast learner, loyal & a hard worker. I really enjoy building relationships with patients & educating them about the importance of oral health since it can help prevent so many other systemic problems.

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.

I am a mother of two boys in high school & am originally from El Salvador. I have been a dental assistant for twenty years, thirteen of which have been with Dr. Morabito. I am responsible for the maintenance of the equipment, assisting & designing CEREC crowns. I love working at this office because of surgery, implants & how all the technology can help our patients. Several years ago, Elsy & I coordinated a dental mission to El Salvador where we treated more than 400 patients. If I were an animal, I would be a bumble bee because they are very hard workers.

I am originally from Ethiopia. I started in the dental field in 2017 because I am obsessed with smiles. A smile is the first thing that you see when looking at a person. I love the thought of helping everyone achieve a healthy & beautiful smile. I like challenging myself to do better & better every day. Outside the office, I love to exercise because it makes me feel energetic & physically fit. I also enjoy traveling, & if I could be an animal, I would be a bird because birds have the freedom to fly wherever they please.
