Kelly, Office Manager
My name is Kelly, and I’m the office manager at James Martin, DMD. I have been in the health care field as a Speech Language Pathologist for over 10 years. I absolutely love helping people and being the authority as their resource for their questions and needs. Helping someone achieve their goals is one of the most rewarding aspects of life. As a therapist, I’m well aware of how teeth affect the function and appearance of your mouth, as I also specialized in swallowing disorders along with speech and language. I fell into dentistry because I happened to marry this wonderful dentist who had a vision for an incredible dental practice, where patients received high-end, personalized care. James Martin, DMD is a family business, and I needed to put my heart into it full-time so it can continue to grow and thrive for our patients. I’m so lucky to have this opportunity, and I want to make sure everyone who steps into our practice is met with comfort, warmth, and a strong sense of care. I am originally from northern New York, where the winters are frigid and the summers are humid – so I’m in love with the weather in Colorado! Dr. Martin and I have a one-year-old, Max, who has become my main hobby. Seeing him grow, learn, and explore is my favorite thing to participate in. We also have two dogs that we cherish. You’ll probably find us at one of the many local playgrounds on the weekend. I also really enjoy design, hiking, and being lazy watching shows or chatting with my friends after a long day of changing lives!
Kent, Dental Assistant
My name is Kent. I’m a dental assistant and am relatively new to the field. I am a Colorado native and the father of two boys. I enjoy playing music, watching The Simpsons, and animals of all kinds. I love to make people laugh and want to help everyone smile more!
Alicia, Dental Hygienist
My name is Alicia. With over 11 years of experience in dental hygiene, including six years in periodontics and five years in general practice, I am dedicated to providing exceptional patient care. I earned both an Associate and a Bachelor of Applied Science in Dental Hygiene from the Community College of Denver, where I also played a key role in helping to establish the BAS program. My efforts contributed to enabling community colleges throughout Colorado to offer bachelor’s degrees, expanding educational opportunities for future dental hygienists.
I have been laser-certified since 2014 and have worked with lasers throughout my entire career. Additionally, I have focused a significant part of my continuing education on dental implant care. Beyond clinical practice, I have been actively involved in professional organizations, serving as Treasurer of the Metro Denver Dental Hygiene Society and as a delegate for the Colorado Dental Hygiene Association at the ADHA. My leadership and dedication to the profession have earned multiple awards, including recognition for academic excellence, professionalism, and service.
Outside of work, I enjoy painting, digital art, and working with charcoal and graphite. I also have a passion for cooking gourmet meals, baking beautiful desserts, and capturing bird photography. Most of all, I cherish time spent with my three beloved cats—Skittles, Sky, and Smuckers.
