Christian
Director of Operations
With over 17 years of experience in the dental field, I have had the privilege of being part of the East Madison Dental family for over 8 years. My passion for dentistry drives my commitment to excellence in all aspects of practice management. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry from William Paterson University.
In my role as the Director of Operations, I oversee the daily operations of our practices, collaborating closely with my team to ensure a seamless and positive patient experience. I am dedicated to fostering a culture of teamwork and continuous improvement within our organization.
Outside of my professional endeavors, I enjoy spending quality time with my wife, family, and friends, as well as exploring new restaurants and traveling.
Dhechen
Registered Dental Assistant & Office Manager
Having the pleasure of working at East Madison Dental since 2018 after working in the dental field since 2004. I graduated from Berdan Institute, where I studied Dental Assisting skills. Throughout my career, I have worked in Oral Surgery, General, and Cosmetic Dentistry. I have participated in volunteer work such as Give Kids a Smile Day and The Healthy Mouth Movement for Veterans. I feel grateful to be part of such a wonderful team of professionals who strive to advance patient care with the newest technologies and materials.
Outside of work I love to create. Anything I can do to use my creative mind, to make something out of nothing gives me great pleasure. Besides crafting I love listening to music, going on adventures experiencing new and exciting things to enhance me culturally. Besides all that, I enjoy my job assisting in the dental field. I like to treat every patient like a friend, making them feel welcomed and comfortable. My goal is to help patients feel better about themselves by assisting them to achieve a happy, healthier smile.

Treatment Coordinator
I am so happy to be part of the East Madison Dental family of staff and patients! I worked for East Madison Dental from 2013 - 2016, returning in 2023. It is an honor and privilege to see patients over the years that I consider family and friends. I worked in the dental field for 6 years, prior to becoming a Funeral Director working in the Tenafly area, then returning to dentistry.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my husband and 2 young children, reading lots of books, and advocating for Muscular Dystrophy (a disease that I have). I look forward to seeing and catching up with you soon!
Kiara
Treatment Coordinator
I’ve been working in the administrative side of the dental field for over five years. I’m excited to be part of the East Madison Dental team! Being part of such a great team is something I’m truly proud of. Making patients feel valued and cared for is my ultimate goal I strive for every day. I’m passionate about contributing a comfortable and positive experience for every patient who walks through the door.
Spanish was my first language, and I learned English when I started elementary school. Being bilingual allows me to connect with a wide range of patients and help them feel fully understood and supported throughout their dental care.
Outside of the office, you’ll almost always find me at the gym—it’s my therapy and my happy place. I work out nearly every day and value discipline both in my personal life and at work. Whether I’m lifting weights or prioritizing patient care, my commitment to growth and discipline is evident in all aspects of my life.
I believe in staying consistent, focused, and always striving to grow.
