As treatment coordinator, Gail works with every patient to guide them through the orthodontic process. Her goal is kindness and to treat every patient as she would want herself and her family to be treated. Each person who crosses her path is different and special and Gail keeps this fact front of mind. “It is my goal for every patient to feel great about choosing Soleil Orthodontics,” Gail says. “Making patients feel comfortable and informed is the most important part of my position.”
Gail loves dogs and looks forward to seeing photos of patients’ pets. She feels blessed by her lifelong job and cherishes the opportunities to interact closely with patients. “It really is a joy!”

“I love seeing how patients’ confidence changes during treatment,” Paige says, stressing that clear and concise communication is key to helping them to this place. “I love seeing the transformations, whether it is a simple fix or long treatment. Our patients leave with brighter and happier smiles.” Paige’s daughter even received her braces from Soleil Orthodontics.

As for the inner workings of the office, Elizabeth is responsible for all the artwork that decorates the hard-to-miss door to the waiting room. She considers her coworkers her second family and one of her favorite things about working at Soleil Orthodontics.
Her favorite part of interacting with patients is learning about their lives and hobbies, helping them with questions, and reading body language to address a topic they may be hesitant to discuss. Elizabeth connects with people who love reading, plants, and cats, and it isn’t a normal day at the office unless she is cracking jokes. “I love laughing, love making people laugh, and love when patients learn about me,” Elizabeth says. She is an open book and always up for a chat.

Clinic Team
Jennifer
Lead Clinical Assistant
As lead clinical assistant with over five years of experience, Jennifer gets to know her patients well, working with them on nearly every aspect of their treatment. Her favorite part of the job, though, is that magical moment when handing patients a mirror to look at their straight smile and realize their hard work and sacrifice paid off. “I love being part of the reason they smile with confidence,” Jennifer says.
Getting braces, Invisalign, or other orthodontic treatment isn’t always easy, and Jennifer is mindful that each patient is different and has a unique personality and comfort level. “I treat patients how I would like to be treated if I was in the chair. I do my best to let them know they can trust me,” she says.
Jennifer is CPR certified, has AIDS/HIV training, is a registered dental assistant, and completed continuing education through the Woodinville Hygiene Study Club. When she isn’t managing smiles and appreciating her coworkers, she enjoys doing her nails, puzzles, Harry Potter, and mystery shows and documentaries.
Kailey
Clinical Assistant
Kailey is a firm believer in treating others the way you want to be treated, and this tenet is reflected in her patient care. “I love when I can make a patient’s day better and put a smile on their face,” she says. To make patients feel comfortable, Kailey does her best to read body language and offer reassurance. Her goal is to help each person gain trust in her approach and treatment, so they feel good about their journey to a new smile.
Kailey has a bachelor’s degree in biology from the University of Washington, completed basic life support and AIDS classes, is a registered dental assistant, and participated in continuing education through the Woodinville Hygiene Study Club.

In her free time, Kailey loves playing guitar, being in nature, and has two cats she adores.
Isabella
Clinical Assistant
The orthodontic journey isn’t always easy or fun, but Isabella firmly believes that it’s worth it for a healthy smile. As a clinical assistant, she prioritizes every patient and helps them through the ups and downs, one pokey wire at a time. “I love making connections with all my patients. The best feeling is meeting as strangers and leaving as besties,” she says.
As she does her work, Isabella focuses on making braces fun by explaining everything and moving through each appointment as quickly and painlessly as possible. Isabella completed basic life support and AIDS courses and is a member of the Woodinville Hygiene Study Club. In her free time, she loves to be outdoors lost in the woods, whether hiking, backpacking or camping.
Paris
Sterile Processing Technician
Paris’s position as a sterile processing technician is critical to the health and wellness of all patients and staff at Soleil Orthodontics. She cleans and sterilizes all tools, instruments and equipment so they are ready to be used for another patient and their orthodontic check-up or procedure.
Paris loves the opportunity to welcome patients and guide them through any questions they have. “Helping people in any way is satisfying and makes me feel like I am part of something,” she says. Outside of work, music is huge in Paris’s life and she loves animals and travel. Her interests help her relate to the patients at Soleil Orthodontics and enrich her workdays.
