Cameron LaFleur
After graduating from the University of Michigan in 2012 and working overseas for a year for a great company I realized that business was my true passion. I love identifying process gaps, improving systems, and managing and working with people. Upon returning to the states in 2013 I worked for several start up companies. Healthcare, specifically dentistry, offers me a great opportunity to put my skills into practice. I am passionate about creating the best possible dental experience from the minute our patients walk in the door. I am working to complete my MBA from Wayne State University. I enjoy spending time with my incredible wife, Kara, working out, leading several teams at our church, reading, and cheering on my Michigan Wolverines!
Lorenzo 
The best part of my career is seeing children in my schedule and being part of teaching them good oral health. It’s been a pleasure watching them grow up from their first cleaning with me to now be in high school and college. I am an Army Veteran, and have been practicing dental hygiene since 2000. My very rewarding career with Ann Arbor Smiles began in 2004. The doctors always provide staff with the latest technology and up to date continuing education courses. Outside of the office I spend time playing softball several days a week and riding my motorcycle. During the winter months I bowl, lift weights, and play racquetball.
Christine
I have been with Ann Arbor Smiles for 26 years, and I wouldn't consider working anywhere else. I enjoy practicing Dental Hygiene and find that we are a fantastic team. I truly feel a calling to serve and help others. I have two wonderful girls, Alexis and Averie, and two crazy pups. I enjoy dabbling with art and sports. I love to travel, and take in Mother Nature.

Taylor
I am so blessed and grateful to be part of such a wonderful and caring team at Ann Arbor Smiles! As a recent graduate of the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry, I am both excited and prepared to begin my journey as a dental hygienist! My passion for dental hygiene began at a young age when I saw the care and compassion of my hygienists. My dedication to serve grew even more during a dental mission trip to the Dominican Republic, where I was given the opportunity to provide much more than beautiful smiles. In my free time, I love to bike, paint, read, and visit my wonderful family in Cincinnati. My goal is to care for and educate my patients, and to do anything and everything I can to help them love their smiles!
Michelle

I began my career in dentistry as a pediatric dental assistant, and completed my degree in dental hygiene in 2005. In my free time I enjoy being outdoors, whether golfing, boating, or running with my dog Mya. My Saturdays in the fall are dedicated to University of Michigan Football. At the Big House, or on the TV, I cheer loudly for the Maize and Blue!

I have fulfilled a childhood dream by becoming a registered dental assistant in 2007 after serving as a Staff Sergeant in the U.S. Army.

I really enjoy the variety of specialty procedures we offer using the most advanced equipment. I truly treasure our dental family! The doctors have given us many opportunities to complete continuing education courses to build on our skillsets in great places like Chicago, Arizona and even Rhode Island. I also assist at Hope Dental Clinic. While at home I am a busy soccer mom to six awesome children!

I am currently a Bachelor’s student at EMU, completing my science degree in biochemistry. I have always wanted to become a dentist myself, and hope to complete a dental program in a near future. I was introduced to Ann Arbor Smiles by a friend of mine when looking for doctors to shadow and gain some experience in the field. From the first day Smiles staff have been very welcoming, supportive and sapiential, which made my learning experience absolutely amazing. Working with experts of the field and interacting with patients will certainly help me become a better professional as well. Outside of office I love to play sports, piano and travel to explore new places.
