I love to laugh and will always have a smile for you. I enjoy getting to know my patients and for them to know a little bit about me. My husband of 22 years and I have raised our two beautiful girls here in Texas and have loved every second of it. I love being outdoors with my four dogs and at soccer games with my daughter.
My love for dentistry developed as a child, thanks to an amazing dentist I had growing up in Argentina. I moved to the US from Argentina when I was 15 years old. After assisting for two years, I decided to go back to school and become a dental hygienist. I graduated from Austin Community College and have loved every minute of my job. My goal is to help my patients with their dental needs and improve their overall health. I want them to know I care and will do my best to make them feel comfortable.
Christina was born on 38th street in Austin, Texas, making her a true Austinite. Christina is happily married and is the proud parent of 2 beautiful daughters. She received her Registered Dental Hygiene Degree from Austin Community College. She states that since she graduated, “I have been doing what I love; my goal as a dental hygienist is to advocate and inform my patients of their dental needs so we as a team can improve their oral health, thus improving their general health. I love to add a little personal touch to every appointment by truly getting to know my patients. I want to provide the best and most thorough care in a relaxed, caring environment.”
Ellie has been a dedicated employee since 2008. She has a knack for numbers and organization which is why she works behind the scenes as our accounts specialist. Ellie is trilingual, speaking English, Spanish, and the Ecuadorian indigenous language of Quichua. She dedicates her free time doing volunteer work for the Quichua speaking community. Since she is a world traveler, and currently resides in NY, we are blessed to have Ellie in the office only for a few weeks each year.
A born and raised Texas girl. I graduated from Del Mar College in 2011 and immensely love helping my patients obtain their healthiest smiles. My love of dentistry was cultivated at a young age after having braces for 7 years. When I'm not at the office you can find me listening to audiobooks, tending to my 40 + indoor plants, walking my sweet yorkie, Tucker, or planning my next wanderlust adventure!
Lacy has been with Tucker Family Dentistry since it opened it’s doors in 2007. She is a dental assistant and enjoys working with all kinds of patients. She is very good with the kids! She can enter a room with a child who is uncomfortable and, by the time she leaves the room, the child wants to come back to the dentist. When Lacy is not at work she is hanging out with her family, teaching kids at church, and meeting new folks in Austin. You will usually see Lacy smiling around the office—smile back.
I was born and raised in Leander! I am a wife, a mom of two, and have a passion for dentistry. I have been in the dental industry over 18 years and I love working with the team here. As someone who did not go to the dentist much as a kid, I understand dental anxiety. That is why I strive to create a welcoming and comfortable experience at the front desk. Outside of work, I am usually cheering my kids on at their sporting events, wishing that laundry would fold itself and reading a good book or taking care of our dogs and chickens. I look forward to seeing you at your next dental appointment!
