Kristi
DENTAL HYGIENIST
Hello, my name is Kristi. I have been with Barton Oaks Dental for four years, though I have worked in a dental setting since right out of high school. I love spending time with my mom, brother, and my three rescue dogs. I also enjoy growing plants from cuttings, reading, visiting Barton Springs, and hiking the Greenbelt with my dogs. This practice feels like my second family, and I cherish the relationships I’ve built through patient care.
Julie
DENTAL HYGIENIST
Hello! I have been a hygienist for 23 years. I started my career as a dental assistant, then returned to school to study dental hygiene, and have been working as a hygienist ever since. I love being a dental professional, helping people become the best they can be by caring for their oral health. I enjoy meeting new people, and my goal is to create long-term relationships with my patients.
My husband and I have two grown sons and four grandchildren who live here in Austin. Spending time with my family is my favorite pastime, and I also enjoy reading, walking (Lady Bird Lake is my favorite trail!), pilates, and yoga. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at Barton Oaks Dental and look forward to meeting you!
Helen
DENTAL HYGIENIST
Hello! I’m a native Austinite, busy raising two growing boys with my high-school sweetheart husband. We’re active in our church ministries, and I love to read. I’ve been a hygienist at Barton Oaks Dental for almost 8 years, but my relationship with this fabulous practice began 24 years ago when I became a patient! It’s my absolute pleasure to compassionately treat our patients.
Ashley
DENTAL HYGIENIST
I was born and raised in Wharton, TX, and earned my bachelor’s degree from The University of Texas at Austin. In 2010, I began my dental hygiene career after graduating from Wharton County Junior College. Since 2012, my husband and I have lived in Buda with our dog, Ellie. In my free time, I enjoy visiting family, trying new restaurants, and exploring new US cities. I pride myself on being a thorough yet gentle hygienist and cherish building long-term relationships with my patients. I’m excited to be part of the great team at Barton Oaks Dental Group!
Megan
DENTAL HYGIENIST
My name is Megan, and I have 8 years of experience in the dental field and hold Associate’s Degrees in both Dental Hygiene and Dental Assisting. Upon graduating dental hygiene school, I received the Colgate STAR Award, which honors my dedication to the profession, compassion in patient care, enthusiasm for community service, and outstanding patient education skills. As an active member of the dental hygiene community, I am deeply passionate about enhancing the oral health of my patients through exceptional care and education. Outside the office, you’ll find me around Lady Bird Lake with friends, traveling to Michigan to visit family, exploring Austin’s newest restaurants, and playing pickleball.
Lacy
OPERATIONS MANAGER
Hello! I’m Lacy Osborne, the Operations Manager at Barton Oaks Dental Group. Since joining the practice in 2018, I’ve truly cherished working with our incredible team of doctors and staff, who have become like family to me. My husband, Joe, and I relocated to Austin from Oklahoma about six and a half years ago. While we miss our two beautiful daughters and son-in-law who still live in Oklahoma, we’re loving Austin. Joe and I are passionate about music, travel, and sports—yes…we are Sooners! I’m incredibly proud to be part of Barton Oaks, which I believe to be the premier dental practice in Austin. Our top priority is always to provide exceptional patient care and outstanding customer service.
