Tara is a newcomer to the office starting this past summer. She hails from Cortland, OH and receive her dental hygienist licensure in 2009 from Youngstown State University. She’s spent 12 years in clinical hygiene and 3 of those years in a duel role working the front desk handling insurance and scheduling at her previous office of 10 years and continues to practice dental hygiene at her office of 8 years in Lake Milton.

When not in the office Tara likes to go hiking with her two wild terriers and her high-school sweetheart turn husband, Clark. She also very much enjoys sewing and embroidery in her down time as well at tacking new renovation projects around the house.

She has loved meeting all the new patients in her short time so far and enjoys putting patients at ease whether it be in the assistant chair or helping to tackle tough insurance questions. She’s very glad to be part of the team!
