I have been employed in the dental profession since 1977. I have been with the Halonen Family since 2000. I maintain integrity and honesty in all situations, both personally and professionally. I take pride in making our patients feel comfortable and confident when assisting the doctors in all procedures. When away from the office, I spend time with my family. I have been married to my husband, Mike, since 1981. We have three children and six grandchildren, and we continue to count our blessings. In the summer we enjoy a family cottage and all the fun that goes along with a close family.
Live Well…Laugh Often…Love Much…

I completed the Dental Hygiene program at KCC in 2001. My career in the dental field has been very rewarding. I am blessed to be part of such a wonderful practice here at Halonen Family Dentistry. Staying up-to-date on new technology and continuing our education is something we strive to do here. My main goal is to provide the best treatment possible for everyone that is in my care. I truly enjoy building relationships with my patients and do all that I can to make their visits enjoyable.
My husband and I have two awesome boys that are our pride and joy! Vacationing, watching movies and being outside are a few of our favorite things to do together.

Jenna - Dental Assistant
I grew up in Farmington Hills and moved to Kalamazoo in 2015 when I got married. I am a certified dental assistant and began my career in 2006. I fell in love with dentistry at a young age thanks to my dad (general dentist) and my sister (periodontist). I was blessed to be trained by them and learn from them for 9 years before I moved to the west side of the state. I truly enjoy getting to know patients and helping them overcome any dental anxiety they may have. I love working at Halonen Dentistry with so many amazing and knowledgeable people! It’s the best feeling when you get to work with people who feel like family.
In my spare time I enjoy reading, traveling, the outdoors and spending time with my family/friends.
