Meet the Vista Dental Care Team

Jamie, RDH/Office Manager

Jamie is a Reno native and still resides in the area with her family.  She attended Truckee Meadows Community College for her hygiene degree, where her class ranked number 1 in the National Dental Hygiene Board Exam.  She has been in dentistry since 2001 and has been a hygienist since 2007.  She started with Vista Dental Care when it first opened in 2008 and has enjoyed building relationships/friendships with the patients she has taken care over the years. Her newest transition in the office has taken her away from her clinical interaction with the patients but she still loves seeing all of them when they come in. In their free time, she, her husband, daughter and son enjoy the outdoors, going to Lake Tahoe, hiking with their dogs, traveling and rooting their favorite sports teams on.  

Bruna, RDH

Bruna was born in Brazil and raised in Reno. She has been in dentistry since 2010 and is dedicated to her patients and to delivering the best care possible. Bruna is tri-lingual and speaks English, Spanish and Portuguese. She graduated locally from Truckee Meadows Community College where she was granted the opportunity to be a part of the Sigma Phi Alpha National Dental Hygiene Honor Society. In her spare time, Bruna enjoys spending time with her son, Mateo. They love to go to the lake and hike adventurous trails.

Amber’s career in dentistry started in 2016. She studied at Truckee Meadows Community College and loves being able to make a positive impact on patients, helping them keep their smiles for a life.

Tahedah, Patient Care Coordinator

Tahedah originally is from Bishop, California where she grew up on the Paiute Reservation. (Fun fact: her name means “deer” in Paiute.) She has been part of the Vista Dental Care team since 2018; she loves the practice’s atmosphere and being able to meet so many new people through her work. Tahedah loves spending time with her husband, Colton and their three children MacKenzie, Axaell and Trey; including two dogs named Poseidon and Oakley, and a cat named Ted. Her hobbies outside of work include fishing, camping, off-roading, and simply being outdoors and exploring new areas. You may notice this when visiting – she actually has two different colored eyes!

Carmen, Front Office

Carmen joined our team in 2022, and she has over 30 years of experience in dentistry. She loves getting to meet new people every day and then immediately helping them receive the care they deserve. Carmen is originally from California and is the proud mother of four children. When she isn’t at home relaxing with her dog, Koda, she likes to dance, camp, fish, and go on road trips.

Karly, Hygiene Coordinator

Karly has been with our practice since 2022, and she loves getting to see our patients’ smiles become brighter and healthier thanks to our team’s high-quality care. She attended Truckee Meadows Community College and has done a little bit of everything over the course of her dental career, from sterilization to assisting and more. Born and raised in Reno, life is delightfully busy at home thanks to her husband, their son, two daughters, and two dogs.
