Meet Our Staff

Hi! I’m Kelly and I will be taking care of you on your first visit to Cook Orthodontics. I have been a Dental Assistant for over 20 years and have worked in many specialties, including pediatrics, general dentistry, and most recently, oral surgery. I joined the Cook Ortho team in August 2009.

I really enjoy working with children as I have three of my own. Audra plays soccer and cheers. Bennett plays football, basketball and baseball. Laurel loves cheering on her brother and sister! In my spare time, I enjoy traveling with my family, reading, shopping, and of course, watching my children play sports!

Hello! I’m Rachel. You will see me in the clinic as well as helping schedule your next appointment. I graduated in 2006 from USI with an Associate of Science degree in Dental Assisting.

In my free time, I love spending time with my family and friends, shopping and going to concerts. I look forward to meeting you soon!

Hi, I’m Robin! I have been working at Cook Orthodontics since the opening in September 2003. I work in the business office behind the scenes, performing bookkeeping and payroll duties as well as coordinating our community involvement activities and local team sponsorships.

Currently, I work part-time for Dr. Cook so I can also spend quality time at home with my young son, Carson. In my free time, I like to travel, read, watch movies and spend time outdoors with my family!

I really enjoy the family-friendly atmosphere we offer at Cook Orthodontics. The people I work with are fabulous, and I’m lucky to have them as both co-workers and friends. Orthodontics is really the best job in the world – we have the opportunity to provide such a positive impact on people! And the best part . . . that smile lasts a lifetime!

Hi. I'm Ashley. I am so excited to be part of the Cook Ortho team! I graduated from USI's Dental Assisting program and began working for Cook Orthodontics in May 2014. I work as a Clinical Assistant and most likely will put your braces on, take them off and help with all appointments in between. I look forward to meeting you!

A fun fact about me is that I was a cheerleader for the USI Men's basketball team. Stunting is my hobby! In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with friends, shopping and being outdoors.
