Diondria became interested in dentistry because as a child she lacked confidence in her smile. As Diondria’s smile was corrected, she began to notice the positive impact it was having on her life and wanted to be a part of helping through similar experiences. She enjoys being able to interact with patients and sees the difference it can make in someone’s life from their oral hygiene to their confidence. Diondria loves working with her team as they truly care for their patients and go the extra mile to make sure they have the best experience possible.
Outside of dentistry, Diondria and her husband have been blessed with three wonderful children who keep them actively engaged in their sports activities. She would love to go skydiving one day but, in the meantime, likes camping, running, listening to music, dancing, and has come to love hiking.
Jacquelyn has always been very dentally aware ever since she had major treatment as a child. She enjoys interacting with patients and helping them feel confident in their treatment plan. Jacquelyn wants to help patients achieve long term, good dental health, along with helping them understand insurance and their payment options. Jacquelyn enjoys working with the Academy Dental Team because everyone is so helpful and confident in their care for the patient’s treatment.
Outside of work, Jacquelyn enjoys serving at church, hunting, camping, cookouts with family and friends, playing board/card games, watching her children play sports, and gardening. Jacquelyn and her daughter also have a crocheting business (more so during fall/winter) making head bands, ear warmers, hats, scarfs, and chunky blankets.
Markie has been working in the dental field since 2012. She prides herself on providing the highest quality care in a timely manner and working to make patients’ dental experience as comfortable as possible. Helping people is part of why she’s passionate about dentistry—turning painful, compromised teeth into beautiful healthy ones.
She greatly enjoys working with the rest of the team where everyone is strong in their own way, and she is thankful to be surrounded by a team that is always helpful and supportive.
Outside of work, Markie loves playing baseball with her son, Ace. She also enjoys spending time with her loved ones at family barbeques and collecting fun Starbucks cups.
