Britta was born and raised near Frankfurt, Germany and decided to move to Colorado in 2011. She loved it so much that she decided to make it her new home. Over the years she went on a lot of adventures in Colorado to travel and explore as much as possible. Always by her side on all her adventures are her four-legged friends.

She met the love of her life Tim, and they settled down along with her two step daughters and her Miniature Schnauzer Gertrude. Together they like to go on adventures and spend quality family time.

In her free time, Britta enjoys the outdoors and spends as much time as she can in the Colorado mountains. Gertude is her shadow and always along for the ride. Britta loves short getaways and learning about other cultures when traveling to foreign countries.

After a successful career in the Veterinary field, Britta followed her passion and became a Dental Hygienist. She has a passion for teeth and loves a beautiful SMILE. This career gave her the opportunity to meet people and educate them about the world of teeth. Britta loves to learn and to extend her knowledge by continuing her education and what new technologies the world of dentistry has to offer.

Britta loves to be a part of the Signature Smiles Dentistry family and enjoys working with a team of professionals that she also proudly calls her friends.

Originally from Kazakhstan, I was adopted alongside my brother, who is six months and one day older than me. I've called Colorado home since I was a baby and grew up in Elizabeth, where I developed a love for the outdoors, family, and community.

For the past four years, I've worked in the front office of the dental field, where I truly enjoy connecting with patients. My goal is to create a warm, welcoming environment and help each patient feel comfortable and at ease from the moment they walk through our doors.

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my boyfriend and family, exploring the Colorado mountains, and spending time in Keystone, where I learned to ski. I also love cheering on the Colorado Buffaloes, the Denver Broncos, the Green Bay Packers, and the San Francisco 49ers (yes, I know that’s a lot of teams—please don’t ask me to pick just one!). When I’m not out adventuring, you can find me relaxing at home with our one-year-old kitten, Baku, who always keeps life entertaining.

Hello, my name is Kala. I am an EDDA Dental Assistant here at Signature Smiles Dentistry. I am originally from Pennsylvania, but have been here in Colorado since the 1st grade. I live on a ranch with cows, chickens, and have two amazing dogs. Rogue is our Wirehair Pointer, and Marlin is our Catahula Blue Heeler. On my free time I love to hunt; I am avid outdoors woman. I recently learned to crochet (yes I am in my millennial grandma era as the young kids like to call it). I have worked in Dentistry for 6 years now and have loved every minute of it. I guess you can call it my career now and I would not change it for the world! Enough about me, come and sit in my chair I would love to hear about you!

Anna was born in Montana and raised in an Air Force family, spending her childhood in both Colorado and Missouri before ultimately moving back home to Colorado. She began her career in hospital administration but quickly realized her favorite part of healthcare was connecting with patients. That passion led her to dentistry, where she loves helping patients feel safe, comfortable, and confident during every visit. Her favorite part of the job is changing the way people feel about going to the dentist by creating a positive, welcoming experience.

Anna is currently preparing to apply to dental school to become a dentist so she can continue building on her passion for patient care and helping others achieve healthy, confident smiles.

Outside of the office, Anna enjoys spending time with her fiancée and their black Lab, Atlas. She loves hiking, skiing, staying active, and expressing her creativity through photography and playing three musical instruments. She’s also a devoted Denver Broncos fan who never misses a chance to cheer them on during football season. Whether she’s exploring the outdoors, spending time with family and friends, or watching the Broncos on game day, Anna loves making the most of every day.
