Head Orthodontic Assistant
Wallace
Welcome! I am a registered dental assistant with over 16 years of experience. I am also an alumnus of Regent University with a Bachelor of Arts Degree. As the Head Orthodontic Assistant at Dr. Heather Brown Orthodontics, I oversee the clinical area to make sure all of your clinical needs are met in a highly proficient and timely manner. I chose the field of orthodontics because it gives me the opportunity to work closely with people who want to improve the way they look and feel.

Before becoming an Orthodontic Assistant, I served in the United States Army. I’m a bit of an introvert, however, I am known to lighten the atmosphere by telling a joke or two to keep everyone laughing. I truly believe laughter is the best medicine to living a happy life.
