Meet the Team
Theresa
Practice Leader
I enjoy getting to know my patients and their families, and it is always such an honor to know that I have made a difference in so many of my patients’ lives. I couldn’t ask for a better job or for better people sharing their smiles with me. I look forward to working with you.
Lauren
Administrative Lead
As a longtime dental assistant, I've transitioned to an office role. Having the clinical experience I do, I feel as though I am able to help patients with understanding the procedure they are having from both a scheduling and clinical standpoint. I recently earned my fellowship with the American Association of Dental Office Managers. I've been a part of the Cornerstone team since 2011. I love the high standard of patient care we have dedicated ourselves to in this office. We take time with every patient to ensure their comfort both in the treatment rooms and at the end of their appointments while checking out.
My husband, my daughter, and I live on a farm and have plenty of animals that keep me busy while not at work. My family enjoys to travel, and our favorite destination is Walt Disney World.
Amanda
Benefits Coordinator
Joining Cornerstone Dental Care in 2018, I love the comfortable environment of this office. It really allows me to fully help our patients.
I live in Blackstone with my husband, Chris in our fixer-upper home! I love Joanna Gaines (my husband calls me LJ for little Joanna) and enjoy watching her show and getting great ideas for beautifying our home! We recently welcomed our pride and joy, a baby girl born during the pandemic!
Derika
Patient Care Coordinator
I'm honored to join the Cornerstone Dental team and collaborate with dedicated, family-oriented professionals. After more than a decade in the legal field and a transition to dentistry, I'm excited to bring my drive and dedication to supporting our patients' health.
Outside of work, my husband Paul and I love planning our next adventures whether a relaxing weekend on Cape Code or a long trek across Europe.
Cari
Lead Dental Hygienist
Cornerstone has been my "home" for almost 18 years. I have been able to help patients develop and maintain good oral health through cleanings and preventative care. Growing relationships has been rewarding to me.
When I am home, I enjoy entertaining, exercise, tennis, and golf. I also love to travel. Spending time with my three grown kids fills my heart.
Jen
Dental Hygienist
I have been practicing dental hygiene for 15 years. I graduated from Forsyth Institute at Northeastern University in 2001 and became licensed to administer local anesthesia in 2009. I am CPR certified and I continually take courses through Professional Development Clubs. I love educating my patients while sharing in their personal lives and I look forward to many more years with such wonderful dentists and team!
I live locally, have been married for 12 years, and have three young children. I am lucky to call many of my patients friends.
Renee
Dental Hygienist
I graduated from the Forsyth School of Dental Hygiene at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences University with a Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene in 2012. I then pursued my Master of Science in Dental Hygiene. I have worked in both pediatric and general dentistry settings and I am a clinical adjunct faculty at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences University.
My favorite part of my job is educating my patients on the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene. I look forward to seeing patients grow in both their knowledge and skills that will help them achieve not only excellent oral health but overall health as well.
I recently married my husband in 2021. We have two very spoiled dogs. I love to entertain and socialize with friends and family. In the summer, I enjoy spending weekends on Cape Cod enjoying the beach, boating, and eating lots of ice cream. Fitness has always been a big part of my life as well. I have participated in many 5k and 10k road races and completed my first half marathon in 2019!
Adam
Dental Hygienist
I started in dentistry in 2006 and earned my degree from Forsyth School of Dental Hygiene in 2008. Over the years, I've worked in both peridoontal and general dentistry practices. Guided by the belief in treating every patient the way I would want to be treated, I focus on providing comfortable, patient-centered care with a calm and professional chairside manner. In addition to my clinical work, I serve as a professor of dental hygiene at the Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences, helping to educate and inspire the next generation of hygienists.
I live with my wife and daughter in Holden, where we enjoy raising chickens. When I have some free time, I enjoy flying model airplanes.
Uyen
Lead Dental Assistant
I’ve been a dental assistant since 2009. With over 15 years in the field, I’ve developed a real passion for helping patients feel comfortable and confident during their visits. I especially enjoy assisting with surgical procedures and being part of a team that helps patients improve their oral health.
Outside of the office, my three kids keep me very busy. I have a large family that I enjoy spending time with and I love to travel.
Melissa
Dental Assistant
I'm a certified registered dental assistant with over 20 years of experience. I developed my love of dentistry at an early age growing up in a dental practice, I fell in love with the field and caring for patients. I am so grateful to be part of the Cornerstone family and continue that passion with the amazing people I get the privilege of working with each day.
Outside of the office you'll find me in the barn enjoying my horses and riding with my two daughters.
Brenda
Sterilization/Lab Coordinator
I started working at Cornerstone Dental in March 2016 after our two offices merged. I graduated from dental assisting school in 1977. I help to ensure the smooth running of all auxiliary staff in the back, maintaining all instrument sterilization and lab cases. It is satisfying to help my coworkers utilize their time efficiently for patient care. My favorite part of coming to work is connecting with the patients and other team members. We all work together to deliver quality, caring dentistry.
I live in Bolton with my husband of 40+ years. We have three amazing daughters, three wonderful sons-in-law, and seven rambunctious grandchildren! I enjoy spending time with them, gardening, sewing, and antiquing. I have also been a volunteer with the Bolton Fair for 30 years.
