Meet the Administrative Team

I grew up in Mt. Zion and graduated from Mt. Zion High School. After high school, I attended Illinois State University in Normal. I live in Long Creek with my husband.  We have two daughters and a grandson. I love being a mom and grandma! We enjoy spending time with our family and friends.  I started working at Decatur Dental Care in 2009. I am fortunate to work with a great staff of loving, compassionate people who go out of their way to provide the best care to our patients.    

I have been employed by Decatur Dental Care since 1998. I am a native of Decatur having graduated from MacArthur High School. I am married to Kerry Hood and we have 3 children and 3 very energetic dogs. In our free time, we enjoy camping, boating and the great outdoors! I can honestly say it is a pleasure to come to work every day. We have both a fun and professional atmosphere. I have the pleasure of working with two very kind and knowledgeable dentists who put patient care first.  

I grew up in Argenta and graduated from Argenta/Oreana High School.  I have been happily married to my husband Atlee since 2015. We have one son, Maddix and one fur baby, Walker. I enjoy the face to face interaction with our patients and helping them with scheduling and billing.  I like to treat our patients like family.
