Our Dental Staff is a Dedicated Team of Friendly and Caring Professionals serving you in the Tri-Cities area and we’re centrally located in Johnson City.

I was born and raised in the Washington, DC suburbs. I moved to Johnson City in 1973 to attend ETSU and to escape the throws of city life and the traffic congestion of the busy metropolitan area. I graduated from ETSU with an AAS in Dental Hygiene and a BS in Public Health.

Working in the dental field has been my passion for many years. I sincerely love my patients and care deeply for them – not only their dental health, but their total health – mentally, physically, and spiritually.

I am married to my husband, Fryde, who works as a therapist and we share 5 children and 2 grandchildren, all of whom we absolutely adore.

I am a Christian and a very active member of my church and the United Emmaus Community.

My hobbies include cooking, playing cards, reading – especially concerning the advances in alternative medicine, real estate hunting (just to be nosy), and just being with friends, family and my precious fur babies.

I grew up in Virginia and went to Old Dominion University where I received my Bachelor of Science degree in dental hygiene in 2008.

Since I was a kid, I have loved going to the dentist, so when it came time to decide on a career path, dentistry became the obvious choice. I love making my patients feel at ease in the dental chair and I truly love it when I can make your pearly whites shine!

My husband and I married right after college and moved to Lynchburg, Va where we lived for 12 years. We have always loved Tennessee, and when my husband got a job opportunity here, we took a leap of faith and made the decision to move in summer 2021.

My hobbies include eating the delicious food my husband makes (I’m a lucky girl and he does most of the cooking), watching Netflix, listening to music, walking, biking and long range shooting (I’ve shot out to 2165 yards!).

We also enjoy spending time with our family and spoiling our 6 nieces and nephews. We have two cats, Sammy and Sinatra, who are our babies.

I grew up in Newport, TN and graduated from the dental assisting program at Walters State Community College in 2005, as well as earned my AAS degree from Northeast State Community College in 2013. I began my career as an assistant in Johnson City in 2007. I thoroughly enjoy spending time with patients and creating a comfortable and fun dental experience.

I married the love of my life, Cole, in August of 2006 and welcomed our beautiful daughter, Kayleah, in 2007. I also have 2 fur kids: Kade, which I adopted in October 2011 at 8 weeks of age and Kayleah’s best friend, Zoe, a beautiful Great Dane who joined us in 2016. We enjoy our time on the farm with our cattle and miniature donkeys.

I am the very proud aunt to 5 nephews, Dalton, Jesse, Joe, Cody, and Levi.

In my free time I enjoy reading, watching TV – especially Netflix – listening to music, walking trails, painting, and spending time with my family.

Registered Dental Assistant

I’m originally from NC, I moved to Tennessee in 2009. I graduated from Ross Medical Center in Johnson City, TN.

I have recently married my best friend, Adam. We got married in California before he was shipped out to his USMC mission.

We enjoy hiking the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, playing arcade/video games, watching movies, and finding new adventures to explore, with our fur baby Charlee.

Registered Dental Assistant

I am an East Tennessee girl, born and raised. I attended Northeast State Technical Community College where I received my Associates in General Studies and my Associates in Medical Assisting. Some of my prior experience include pediatrics, dermatology, and general medicine. After 17 years in medicine, Dr Moody “stole” me over to dentistry. I completed my RDA from Walter State in June of 2021.

I am lucky enough to have married my high school sweetheart, and we have raised two amazing young men. I am an autism mom, and have a passion for advocating for the special needs community. I spend my free time fishing, reading, or wishing I was on the beach.

You can’t miss me! I will be the one competing with Dr Moody in a sing or dance off. (Enjoy the Show J) I look forward to seeing you, and I take pride in being a part of your dental team!

Insurance / Billing Specialist, Office Manager

I am one of the first smiling faces you will see when you come into our office.  I grew up on the beautiful beaches in Florida by Clearwater Beach. When I first walked through Downtown Jonesborough, I knew that we would be relocating!  I am so thankful to have stumbled upon this beautiful area, and decided to call it my home. 

My passion is cooking.  I love all food, except for veggies!  My son and I like to come up with crazy creative ideas mixing different heritages with one another and creating amazing dishes! My dogs certainly don’t complain with their homemade treats! 

Patient Services Coordinator

My name is Jamie, I am the Patient Coordinator at Vista Ridge Dental Arts Studio. I completed the Dental Assisting Program in Sacramento, CA at Kaplan College in 2008. I have enjoyed working in the dental field and building relationships with patients.

I was born and raised in Northern California. I moved to Jonesborough, TN in November 2021 with my husband Zach. We have a new fur baby named Yeti, he is a 6-month-old Bouvier Des Flandres.

In my free time I love kayaking, paddle boarding, and hiking. I am enjoying all the waterfalls in this area.

I’m Carrick, a Miniature Goldendoodle. I was born in South Carolina on September 7, 2018. I love my family, cuddles, running around and occasionally finding things to chew on (whether they be toys or not!). I have started my training to learn how to help our patients feel comfortable and at ease during their dental appointments. I know so many of you humans get anxious about dental work, but just look into my big, brown eyes and let all of that anxiety melt away! I can’t wait for you to rub my belly or pat my head and tell me I’m a good boy!
