McKenzie was born and raised in Price, Utah. She has been passionate about dentistry from the time she was a little girl. When she was 10 years old she asked her dentist if she could work for him. He promised that if she still wanted a job when she turned 16, he would train her to be a dental assistant. He held true to his promise and she worked as a dental assistant for 6 years. She graduated from Utah Valley University’s Dental Hygiene program in 2007. Her favorite part of being a dental hygienist is helping educate patients on how to best achieve their smile goals and building lasting personal relationships. She enjoys travel, working out and boating with her husband and 3 daughters.

Kumari comes from a very strong dental background that has influenced some of her earliest memories. Her dad, a dentist in Washington, and mom, a nurse who taught pathophysiology to dental hygiene students, instilled in her a love for dentistry at a very young age along with 3 other siblings who have also become hygienists. She began working and assisting in her dad’s practice and then worked 10+ years as a dental assistant before graduating in the inaugural class of Utah College of Dental Hygiene in 2007. Since then, she’s loved caring for members of the Utah community as a Registered Dental Hygienist and serves on the UCDH Program Advisory Committee. A highlight of her career has been accompanying the University of Washington on a dental/medical brigade mission to Panama in 2011. Kumari was adopted from India and raised in Seattle by her amazing parents who adopted 5 other children as well as having 6 of their own. Kumari’s favorite activity is spending a long day at the beach, soaking up the sun outdoors, with her husband and 3 boys.
