Hello! My name is Jenell. I was born and raised in Chapel Hill, and yes, I am a true blue Tar Heel fan! I graduated from DeVry University with a degree in business management. I was introduced to the world of Dentistry over eight years ago and am blessed to say I have enjoyed every minute since that time. I joined the Providence Smiles team in March of 2020. I am an avid crafter and music listener. When I am not at work, you will find me spending time with my family at the beach or the mountains, cooking, crafting, listening to tunes, volunteering, and binge-watching some of my favorite TV shows. I look forward to meeting you!

Hello there! My name is Emory, and I am pleased to say I call Chapel Hill home. I have been a Tar Heel since I could walk, and I am proudly a tried and true Tar Heel since graduating with my Bachelor of Science in dental hygiene in May 2021. I have wanted to be a dental hygienist since I was 10 years old! I love this field and am passionate about using my skills to serve others.

I joined the team at Providence Smiles in June 2021 and have thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it. I knew after one visit to the office that I wanted this to be my dental home, which speaks volumes about Dr. Gyampo and the culture that is fostered here. When not knee-deep in teeth, I run a small craft business, go hiking and spend time with the people I love. I love making those around me feel welcome and comfortable. I look forward to taking care of you!
