KELLY

SCHEDULING COORDINATOR

Hi! My name is Kelly I work in the front office at Harborside Dental as the scheduling coordinator. I Have worked for Dr. Kozelko since September 2001. Some of my responsibilities include answering the phone, scheduling appointments, doing financial arrangements, greeting patients, and some miscellaneous “behind the scenes” tasks. I love what I do here at Harborside Dental! I work with a great team of co-workers.

One of the greatest rewards of my job is building relationships with our patients and helping them to achieve and maintain excellent dental health. It is very rewarding knowing that our patients leave our office with quality dental work.

In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my husband Rob, my cat Bubs and my dog Scarlett. They keep us very entertained and busy! Some of my hobbies include going to the beach, traveling, reading, and being with family and friends.

AMANDA

REGISTERED DENTAL HYGIENIST

Hi, my name is Amanda. I am a Registered Dental Hygienist and received my degree from Ferris State University. After graduating I moved to Traverse City from Grand Rapids and have enjoyed making Traverse City my new home. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my husband and my dog, Boone. We like to do anything outdoors including camping, boating, biking, fishing, etc.

Angel

REGISTERED DENTAL HYGIENIST

Hi there! My name is Angelita but you can call me Angel. I am a Registered Dental Hygienist and completed my education at MCC in Flint, MI. Prior to completing my RDH licensure I was a dental assistant for an oral surgery office downstate. Relocating to Traverse City was one of the best decisions I have ever made, not only because TC is an incredible town in northern MI, but also because I get to work at such a wonderful dental office. When I am not saving smiles at Harborside Dental, I enjoy adventuring outdoors with my Siberian Husky, Aegon. I look forward to seeing you at your dental cleanings!
