Julie, Business Manager

I love the people at Isthmus Dental. We work hard as a team to provide the best possible dentistry to our patients. My job as business manager involves working with the Isthmus Dental team on a daily basis, to keep our office running smoothly while maintaining our excellent, friendly patient care. I enjoy being outdoors bicycling, kayaking, and traveling with my husband, Mark.

Kaitlyn, Front Desk – Reception

I enjoy working the front desk; getting to know our patients and helping them schedule their next appointment. We truly have a wonderful staff here and we do our best to accommodate our patient’s needs. I enjoy time with my family, reading, camping and gardening in my free time.

Amber, Front Desk – Reception

I grew up in Madison & really enjoy living here! I want to give all of our clients the friendly, quality customer care that they deserve. When I am not in the office I like to spend time with friends and family, my two cats and reading.

Heidi, Dental Assistant

I started working as a dental assistant while enrolled in the assisting program at MATC. I worked in the Windsor/Waunakee area for eight years before coming to this awesome practice. I have felt very at home here for 26 years now with great doctors, co-workers, patients and location. I grew up in a small, rural area north of Madison and have always lived in the surrounding area. Now living in Madison, I really enjoy the bicycle trails and lakes, spending with family and friends, watching movies or just enjoying “down time.”  I strive to  put patients at ease during treatment and make it the best possible experience for them.


Tatiana, Dental Assistant

I joined Isthmus Dental in the fall of 2023. I received my training at Madison College and am excited to bring my knowledge and customer service skills to Isthmus Dental.  I am committed to providing the highest quality care to our patients. 

Jamie, Registered Dental Hygienist

I started working as a dental assistant while I was in school, but once I graduated from the Dental Hygiene program at MATC, I joined this practice and have never looked back. I love working here and have grown to appreciate my patients, staff, the doctors, and our lovely downtown location. Originally from Janesville, Wisconsin, my parents and family still live in the area. I have lived in Madison since 2002. I have a bichon mix puppy named Symon Michael, named after Michael Symon from the Food Network! Needless to say, I enjoy cooking, and have even done some catering for events on the side. I spend a lot of my free time with friends and family. I stay busy by playing volleyball, kickball, and by walking Symon. I also love watching the Badgers, Brewers and Packers. I hope to remain active in the community by volunteering and continuing to provide the best care for my patients. I know that going to the dentist is not everyone's favorite thing to do, but I hope to make the experience as enjoyable as possible. You should walk away from our visits feeling good about your dental health, and knowing how to make your overall dental health even better.

Jessie, Registered Dental Hygienist

I have been a Dental Hygienist since 1999. I enjoy helping people feel comfortable and at home here at Isthmus Dental, Ltd. I am originally from the Neenah-Menasha area and now live in Oregon with my daughter and furry baby Morty! I enjoy attending events with my daughter, camping, animals, reading, and baking.


Tara, Registered Dental Hygienist

I graduated from Madison Area Technical College with my associate degree in Dental Hygiene  in May 2017. Prior to this I served in the US Navy and then worked at the Madison Vet Center helping connect US veterans with services they needed. I really enjoy my work at Isthmus Dental and love helping people get the dental care they need. I enjoy spending time with my two daughters and attending their activities and events.
