Our Program Directors & Instructors
Serafin Orellana, RDA
Instructor
Serafin has grown up here in Concord and is no stranger to the Bay Area. He has been a RDA since 2011 and has been working in various dental offices since. Over the years he’s gained experience in providing excellent patient care by excelling in taking accurate and quick x-rays, carving temporaries for multi-unit restorations, taking alginate and scanned impressions and working quickly and efficiently with the doctor chairside. Patients and coworkers love him because he is patient and a great communicator. He is passionate about the dental field and enjoys passing on his knowledge to all new coming assistants in the field. In his free time he enjoys hiking, fishing and being outdoors.
Katie Tran, DDS
Program Director
Born in Concord, CA, Dr. Tran is no stranger to the neighborhood. She has since been practicing dentistry for over thirteen years in New York & California as well as Honduras outreaches. She opened the doors to Casa Dental in 2014 and has been serving the city of Concord ever since. With the continued growth of Casa Dental and a larger team of doctors and assistants, she noticed that there were many people who were interested in getting into the field of dentistry but didn't know where to start. With that, Angel Dental Assisting School was born and is the first in the East Bay area with an accelerated program. In her free time you can find her practicing hot pilates and playing with her two young children and their French bulldog, Montana!
