Laura, Front Desk
I joined the Red Maple family in May of 2017. I am a Asheville native but have roots in Georgia as well. Dentistry has been in my blood since a very small child due to the fact my mother was a Dental Assistant for many years. I love everything about dentistry, even the sounds. I have enjoyed meeting all the patients and helping them with their dental needs. My husband Bronson is a Elementary School PE teacher and we are expecting our first child April of 2018. Our current fur baby is a Golden Retriever named Waylon. In my spare time I love to play softball and most importantly cheer on my SEC CHAMPS the Georgia Bulldogs during football season . GO DAWGS!
Darlene, Dental Assistant
I have been with the practice since 1999 after graduating from AB Tech in 1992. I enjoy all aspects of dental assisting, from making pretty temporary crowns to seeing a patient’s smile changed with cosmetic dentistry. I am married to a wonderful husband, Michael, and have a son, Austin, who is a talented motocross racer. Our weekends stay busy cheering him on and working as his pit crew. We enjoy every minute!
Ashley, Dental Hygienist
I graduated from AB Tech Dental Hygiene school in 2000 and have been practicing in North and South Carolina ever since. I enjoy being a part of the Red Maple Dental team, getting to know patients and educating them about their dental health. My husband Jeremy and I have two children, Kamryn and Seth. In our spare time, we enjoy visiting family and friends, hiking and snow skiing.
Stephen, Office Manager
I’m happy to work behind the scenes taking care of all the small details that make your visit ideal and keep our family business running smoothly. I allow Dr. Hoffert to give her full attention to your care, which makes Red Maple Dental unique. I grew up in North Carolina, graduated with honors from the US Air Force Academy in 2001 and have a master’s degree in Business. After a 14-year active duty career flying the T-37, T-38A, B-52H, T-6A, AT-38C and F-15C in both the USAF and Louisiana Air National Guard I’ve decided, with my wife, to settle in Asheville and give life’s priority to our three children. I enjoy coaching T-ball in the North Asheville Little League, getting to know all the great outdoor activities in WNC and my monthly trip to Columbus AFB, Mississippi, where I teach the newest pilots of our US Air Force and of our allied nations the basics of military aviation.
