Kelly Butzen
Office Administrator
I have enjoyed being an office administrator for Dr. Kugia since 2013. One of the many things I love about my job is assisting our patients with their insurance questions and helping anyway I can. Outside of the office, I love to cook for my family and try new vegan recipes.
Deborah McKee, R.D.H.
Dental Hygienist
I'm excited to be the newest hygiene addition to Dr. Nicholas Kugia's team. Although I have been in the dental field for the last 5 years, I recently graduated from Rock Valley College with a degree in dental hygiene in spring of 2016. What I love about my job is building relationships and helping patients achieve the best oral health possible. Outside of work I enjoy boating and spending time with my Husband, family, and friends.

I have been assisting Dr. Nicholas Kugia since October 1998. I love helping patients to be comfortable and relaxed. It is my pleasure to help patients regain a healthy smile again. I was born and raised in the Bavarian region of Germany. I moved to the states when I married my husband. I have two adult daughters and will soon be a grandparent. I enjoy kayaking and walking in the summer

I have been apart of Dr. Nicholas Kugia's team since 2011 and in the dental industry since 2010. I graduated from the First Institute with a Dental Assisting certificate in October 2011. I love having the opportunity to educate patients about their oral health and assist in restoring them back to health. Afterwork, I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children. When I'm not with my family, I enjoy sewing and crafting.
