Meet Our Dental Team in Lakewood, CO

Naomi joined the Shining Stars Kids Dentistry family in 2017 and has been in the dental field for over 13 years. She comes in each day ready to spread cheer and smiles and keep our office fun. She loves being around the kids who visit our office – their excitement, energy and personalities make being in our practice a joy.

Naomi and her husband have three children, two girls and one boy, as well as two dogs, two cats and a turtle. Outside the office, she can be found spending time with her family, curling up with a good book, camping and baking cakes to decorate.

Tori graduated from Red Rocks Community College with an associate degree in movie and video production and joined our team in March 2017. She loves the people she works with and loves working with our little friends. Tori arrives every day with a can-do attitude!

Tori has two dogs, two cats, some plants and an amazing partner. In her free time, she enjoys reading, drawing with charcoal, growing plants and playing video games.

Although Jennifer has only been in the dental field for two years, she has extensive customer service experience from her work as a tax preparer and bank teller. Jennifer loves working at Shining Stars Kids Dentistry because the kids remind her of her own childhood experience in China. She was very frightened of the dentist as a child, and thus she has a desire to make all children comfortable and relaxed when they come to visit our clinic. She wants kids to see that going to the dentist can be fun too!

Jennifer has a wonderful husband, two beautiful daughters and a golden retriever named Jonas. In her spare time, she enjoys swimming and playing tennis, and she is fluent in both Mandarin and Cantonese.

Jenny completed her training at the Emily Griffith Technical College dental assisting program and has been working as a dental assistant since the summer of 2022. She enjoys the upbeat environment of our office and working with our team, and she brings her own positive attitude and growth mindset with her everyday she comes into work.

At home, Jenny is mom to four doggies and she can often be found painting in her free time.

Maria completed her training as a dental assistant at Pima Community College after graduating from high school. She joined our team in December 2017. She loves working with children and brings with her a great positive energy and a determination to make the best of every day.

Maria is the oldest of four siblings and has two dogs and a turtle. Outside the office, she enjoys hiking and spending time with her dogs.
