Brenda
Office Manager
Brenda plays a key role in shaping the experience at Fox Family Dental and is passionate about creating an environment where patients feel welcomed, informed, and genuinely cared for. She believes that strong relationships and clear communication are the foundation of great care and takes pride in supporting both patients and the team behind the scenes to ensure everything runs smoothly.
Outside of the office, Brenda loves creating moments that feel thoughtful and meaningful - whether that’s cooking from scratch and trying new recipes for the people she loves or gathering around experiences that bring people together. She finds joy in the little details (including a growing collection of fun socks), and loves to travel, from exploring new places to spending time at her grandpa’s ranch around the horses. More recently, she’s added cruising to her adventures, a reminder that it’s never too late to try something new.
Ciara

Mike
Hygienist
With over 25 years in dentistry, Mike is known for his calm, gentle approach and has earned the nickname “Soft Paws” from patients who appreciate how comfortable he makes them feel. He has a natural way of easing nerves, especially for those who come in feeling anxious, and will occasionally surprise patients with a perfectly timed dad joke.
Outside of the office, Mike enjoys spending time with his wife and two kids and making memories together. One of his favorite ways to unplug has become family cruising; something they tried for the first time last year and loved enough to turn into a new tradition.

She enjoys taking the time to guide patients through their oral health while considering their overall well-being and strives to create a calm, comfortable experience at every visit.
Originally from Calgary, Canada, Shanti spent many years surrounded by the Rocky Mountains before settling in Arizona, where she enjoys the warmth, sunshine, and slower pace of life. Outside of the office, she enjoys Bollywood dancing, cooking for her family, and traveling - including a memorable visit to the Pyramids!

Chelsi brings energy, warmth, and a whole lot of personality to Fox Family Dental. She loves building genuine relationships with her patients and helping them feel confident, comfortable, and informed about their oral health.
Outside of the office, Chelsi is a proud Disney adult and loves spending time with her family. You’ll often find her cheering on her oldest son at hip-hop competitions or watching her youngest play soccer.
