Amy, Orthodontic Assistant
I have worked in the dental profession for almost 10 years. I started out working in general dentistry, but always knew I wanted to work in orthodontics. I joined Dr. Hardin’s team in 2007.
I remember my own process of going through braces as a young teen, and how it made me feel more confident to have a beautiful smile. I love to see our patients grow as they go through the process of braces, becoming more confident in themselves. When I get to remove someone’s braces to reveal that beautiful smile I feel so proud them!
I have been married for almost 10 years and we have two very spoiled dogs. I enjoy gardening, reading & baking.

Nan, Treatment Coordinator
I have worked in the dental field for over 30 years. I had braces as an adult and love the results! My goal is to help more adults, as well as children receive the great smiles that they deserve. A great smile not only improves dental health, but creates better self esteem. I get so excited when I can help change people’s lives.
I am married to my high school sweetheart, Mike and we have a son, Steven. I am also an artist who loves painting the nature that I see all around us.

Dawn, Orthodontic Assistant
I have worked in orthodontics for 18 years and have been a part of Dr. Hardin’s team since 1998. I have worked both in the clinic and at the front desk. I love being part of a team that can make a difference in people’s lives by creating beautiful smiles.
I have been married to my husband Rick since 1988. We have two children, Jordan and Jenna. I enjoy going to antique shops, knitting, and hiking with my family; which also includes a dog, a cat, a fish, and a leopard gecko.

Sheri, Scheduling Coordinator
I have been a part of Dr. Hardin’s team since 2002. I’ve worked in dentistry for 13 years, having worked both in the clinic and the front office. To me, orthodontics is such an exciting and rewarding field to work in. I love watching the amazing transformation of not only the teeth, but also the self-confidence that a beautiful smile can bring.
My husband, Jason, and I were married in 1991 and have three boys-Taylor, Conner, and Maysen. When I’m not at the baseball or football field cheering on one of my boys, you might find me working on my next knitting project or snuggled up with a good book.

Jacqueline, Clinical Coordinator
I have had the pleasure of being a part of Dr. Hardin’s team since 1999. Having a background in general dentistry, I have found the orthodontic field to be my favorite! Every patient has their unique orthodontic challenges that I get to share with them, and the rewards are a bonus.
I enjoy sightseeing and thrift shopping in my spare time. I have three grown children, Jacob, Marie, and Andrew. My husband Dennis travels often, so a trip with him is always something to look forward to.

Nadene, Records Coordinator
I became interested in smiles as a pre-teen, wearing braces. I was so happy to have my “fangs” disappear and watch my teeth straighten. I even considered becoming an orthodontist when I grew up.
I had worked in the dental field for over 20 years when I joined Dr. Hardin’s team in 2004. My job as the Records Assistant gives me the opportunity to work with young people and be a part of creating beautiful smiles. I love it!
When away from the office, I enjoy spending time at the beach with my husband, George, and our fur child (dog) Rico. We like to visit sunny places, especially by cruise ship. Our two sons, Austin and Garrett, sometimes join us.

Kristi, Orthodontic Assistant
I have been in the dental field since 2004, and joined Dr. Hardin’s team in January of 2008 when I moved here from Seattle. My favorite thing about working here is the energetic staff and patients, and having the opportunity to help create beautiful smiles. I enjoy making new friends with my patients and helping them feel good about the way they look.
I live in Vancouver with my soul mate Jake, and our two dogs Korban and Hudson. We love heading to Long Beach whenever we get a chance, and I always make sure to bring my crochet projects with me.

Chris, Financial Coordinator
I have worked in the dental field for 36 years, and became a part of Dr. Hardin’s team in 2008. I enjoy helping families with their financial arrangements, as well as handling their insurance needs. I am so thankful that I work with such an awesome group of people, which makes coming to work each day a joy. It’s fun to see the lifelong differences we make in people’s lives.
I have been married to my husband Mike since 1981, and we have two daughters, Toni and Sara. Away from the office you might find me quilting or hunkered down with a good book.
