Lorilee

Office Administrator

Hello, my name is Lorilee and I am one of the first faces you will see as you enter our beautiful practice.

My husband and I relocated to Kelowna from the lower mainland and are raising our two very busy children. We appreciate all the amenities the Okanagan has to offer, and indulge as much as possible.

I began my career in dentistry as a chairside assistant where I received great pleasure in making patients feel at ease and assisting with improving their oral health. I now enjoy being at the front desk where I am able to use my dental knowledge to further facilitate patients with their dental inquiries and administrative needs.

I look forward to meeting you and hope to make your experience with us a positive one.

Shannon

Office Administrator

Hello, my name is Shannon and I became an Office Administrator at Aura Dental in December 2018. I enjoy working with the amazing team here and assisting all of the wonderful patients who come through the door each day.I was born and raised in Peachland, BC and it is still my favourite place in the Valley. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time outdoors in the mountains camping, exploring and taking advantage of living in the beautiful Okanagan with all it has to offer.

Jacky

Certified Dental Assistant

Hi, my name is Jacky. I completed the Certified Dental Assistant Program in 2007 at the University of Fraser Valley. I have been a part of Aura Dental's team since we opened back in June 2011. You will see me working in the back of the office performing a multitude of tasks such as taking your x-rays, intra oral pictures and impressions, as well as assisting Dr. Tse with your treatments during your visits here. My goal is to make your time with us as enjoyable and relaxing as possible.

A little bit about me... I moved here from Abbotsford 2007. I have a lot of family in the Okanagan and have spent most of my summers growing up soaking up the beautiful weather. While we enjoy our summer weather, I spend a lot of time down at the beach and camping. During our winters, I like to head up to the mountain with friends and family. I love to travel and take advantage of any opportunity I get to do so. I look forward to meeting you!

Brittany

Hi, I'm Brittany and I'm a Certified Dental Assistant. I am an island girl born and raised in Victoria. I completed my certification in 2012 at Camosun College and moved out to the Okanagan soon after where I met my husband!

Whenever I can, I take advantage of the awesome weather here in the Okanagan. I really enjoy being active and spend my time playing sports, camping, snowboarding, traveling, and hanging out with friends!

During your visit, I will do my best to make you feel comfortable and have a positive dental experience!

Leeza

Certified Dental Assistant

Hello my name is Leeza. I am a Certified Dental Assistant and I completed my program in Vancouver BC. I am originally born and raised in Kelowna, so naturally after graduation I moved back to the sunny Okanagan to begin my CDA career right here at Aura Dental. When not at the dental office I can be found teaching dance to kids as my second job. I like to bake and sew in my spare time which my coworkers greatly appreciate when I bring my baking to the office!

My favorite part about working at Aura Dental is that we are one big family and work together as a team to make your experience with us a positive one!

Kate

Registered Dental Hygienist

Hi I'm Kate and I'm a registered Dental Hygienist. I graduated from the College of New Caledonia Dental Hygiene program in Prince George, BC.

I am passionate about oral care and my goal here at Aura Dental is to help patients understand their individual oral care needs. The most enjoyable part of my day at Aura is getting to know my patients and working together to keep oral health a priority.

I was born and raised here on the Westside and love living in the Okanagan. I take full advantage of all this beautiful area has to offer, from running along the water at Gellatly Bay, to skiing Big White in the winter. One of my greatest enjoyments was sparked after spending a year abroad living in Thailand. I love to travel and have been privileged to have seen many beautiful countries and this summer I will add Spain and Morocco to my list!

I look forward to meeting all the new patients at our office and showing off the gorgeous view of the lake we have here at Aura!
