Shannon
I am our office’s PR coordinator, so I’m in charge of marketing and planning all the fun games and contests we have for patients. I’m mostly out of the office, but when I’m around I love to see the kids playing trivia games to win great prizes! It’s great to work in a field where we help people improve their self-image by getting a beautiful smile, and our team makes getting that smile a lot of fun!
My husband, Conrad, and I have been married for 13 years. We have two daughters named Brooke and Reilly, a son named Bryce, and a grandson named Braeton. In my free time I love watching my kids play sports, volunteering at my kids’ schools, and spending time with my family.

Welcome! As Dr. Kassman’s administrative assistant, I can usually be found at the reception desk making appointments, answering the phone, and greeting patients as they come into the office. I love interacting with patients and parents; they are all fabulous! I feel very grateful to be a part of this amazing team.
My husband’s name is Brandon and we have one daughter, Karmen, and a son Mason! In my free time I enjoy watching movies, reading, and seeing Karmen grow and learn.
Vanessa
Hello, I am one of Dr. Kassman’s clinical assistants, so you’ll see me helping him chairside during appointments and adjustments. It’s really great to talk to and get to know all our patients when they’re here. They’re all very interesting and have fun stories to tell! Our office is full of fun for our patients, from contests and giveaways to tasty goodies!
My husband, Frankie, and I have two dogs named Tulip and Armani. When I’m not in the office I enjoy running and I love doing makeup!
Kristina
Hi, I’m a clinical assistant for Dr. Kassman. I love to laugh, so when I’m assisting the doctor chairside, I always try to get our patients to laugh with me! It’s great that we get to see our patients regularly. For our younger patients, I get to watch them grow and develop into teenagers and young adults with really great smiles!
My husband’s name is Eric and we have a family of four-legged children. We have two adorable Chows, Simba and Rajah, and two cats named Sassy and Baby. I love the outdoors, hiking, camping, and snowboarding in the winter as often as possible.
Laurie
Welcome! As our office manager, I take care of patients’ scheduling, coordinate treatment, and keep everyone happy and things running smoothly. I love helping patients and parents relax and realize that orthodontics is affordable with flexible payment schedules, comforting and easing their fears about treatment, and watching the transformation that a beautiful smile can give. We are a fun office; our motto is "making orthodontics fun for people that like to smile.” We create a warm and comfortable place to visit.
Spending time with my husband, Andy, and our son, Dylan, is my favorite activity. I also enjoy hiking, reading, watching my son play basketball, and volunteering at my son’s school.
