Kate is the Patient Coordinator at Lux Smiles. She was born and raised in Willmar, Minnesota and moved to Chicago to further her education. She currently is a senior at Loyola University Chicago studying biology, aspiring to become a dentist. At a young age, Kate realized her passion for dentistry and how she would love to change the negative stereotype of dental visits to positive ones. Growing up, Kate was over joyed when it was time for her routine dental checkup. She hopes to one day have the same effect on patients of her own. Kate wants everyone to enjoy their beautiful smile and doesn’t want patients to be intimidated in making proper steps in achieving their dream smile. In her free time, she enjoys golfing, traveling, and trying out new restaurants throughout Chicago.
