My husband, Nelson, also works at DenTech. We’ve been married 20 years and have 2 daughters, Naleah, 18 and Danika, 15.
I love sports, have coached HS volleyball for 19 years. One of my favorite things is to watch our girls play volleyball, lacrosse and basketball.
I like to travel. I’ve been to Kenya 3 times and would go back again in a heartbeat.

Bernice (Bernie) Garcia

[ Welder ]

Favorite thing to do would be camping or going up to a cabin in the fall time when leaves start to turn colors.
I love to travel with my fiancé which by the way I will be getting married on the 26th of March.
I have two pets which I adore. One is a mini dachshund and the other is a Parrotlet.

Shannon Hackman

[ Sales/Marketing Manager ]

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, although, it is getting more difficult to hang out with my tween/teen kids. In which case you can find me at my boxing gym.
I enjoy being outdoors, taking hikes, bike riding, or exploring new places. One day I hope to own a cabin preferably near the pine creek in Potter county.
I am currently working on becoming an Irish citizen through descent.

Amber Aument

[ Aftermarket Rep ]

After a drink or two, I’m pretty good at cornhole
When I was about 13-14 years old, it was a rainy day and I was bored so I taught myself how to juggle.
I learned how to blow a bubble with chewing gum before my brother Nate. (he’s 3 years older than me) haha

Kristen Berndt

[ Creative Director ]

I bought a fixer upper 2 years ago and learned how to tile floors and backsplashes. I’ve also started to take up woodworking. DIY and creating custom drawings is my outlet.
I lived in Brooklyn, NY for 8 years, before returning here for good. But I still love to visit and enjoy the culture. (pre 2020)
I hit the bullseye the first time I ever tried axe throwing.

My favorite kinds of movies are sci-fi, fantasy, and action, but I love watching almost all kinds of movies (except for horror).

One of my hobbies is arts and crafts. I like experimenting with inks, markers, and watercolor.

Sue Elliott

Biggest fish I ever caught . . . my husband, when I got a hook caught in his back and we had to go to the hospital to have it removed!

I spend more time at the barn riding then I spend anywhere else.
