Mareville

Practice Administrator

I was born and raised in the Philippines. I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. I worked as a teacher and a banker for 11 years. We moved to the USA in 2007 for a good opportunity for my husband’s career. I didn’t expect that I’ll be part of Dr. Kumra’s growing company. I’ve been working with him for 9 years now.

Viviana

Treatment Coordinator

I was born in Argentina, but my parents moved to Venezuela when I was 6 years old. I found my true passion in life when I worked as an orthodontist for more than a decade in Venezuela. Circumstances forced me to move abroad again, this time to Colorado, where I managed a day spa for years. When I became an empty nester, I moved to DC to be closer to my family. I love being in a big city with a lot of diversity and fun activities to do on the weekends.

Joanna

Scheduling Coordinator

I’m from the Philippines. A few years ago, I got braces and it made a big difference—not just in my smile, but in my confidence as well. Seeing how it changed my life, I’ve been helping others with their own dental transformations. When I’m not doing that, I enjoy watersports, traveling and spending time with my baby boy, Ethan.

Ashley V.

Scheduling Coordinator

Becoming part of Kumra Orthodontics has been extraordinary. Working with an amazing team helped me become a better patient coordinator & open to new challenges. The best moment of my day is scheduling appointments for our future patients who are seeking a new smile. Smiling is where it starts. In July 2023 I became a mother to a baby boy. I enjoy every moment with my little family, and I am always taking memorable pictures.

Iris

Clinical Manager

I am the clinical manager at our DC location, with 22 years of experience. I am passionate about creating beautiful smiles. I am a mother of two. Outside of work and family, I enjoy fitness and exploring nutrition, emphasizing a healthy lifestyle.

Thanh

Clinical Assistant

I am an orthodontic assistant with 7 years of experience. I’m a mother of a 2 year old son and a wife of a visual artist. Outside of work I love spending time and traveling with my family. I also enjoy making art projects with my husband.

Marissa

Clinical Assistant

I am from the beautiful island of Trinidad and Tobago. I now reside in Maryland with my family. I have been in the dental field for 18 years. Orthodontics has been an amazing experience for me, seeing the smiles we create from the beginning to the end. In my free time, I like to visit new places and spend time by the beach; listening to the water rush upon the shore is very soothing.
