Valerie Harrelson-Polulack
I graduated from the Medical College of Georgia in 2001 with a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene. I grew up in New Smyrna Beach and love the beach—of course—but the mountains as well. I have two active, young boys, Hank and Samuel, who are my pride and joy. Before having children, I was a founder of a local nonprofit dog rescue and helped save many animals. I enjoy running, hiking, and cycling, and I have recently become a certified group fitness instructor. I’m passionate about providing the utmost care to my patients, and I love seeing them smile.
Jeniva Martinez
I’m Jeniva, a registered dental hygienist from Puerto Rico, fluent in both English and Spanish. My main goal is to make you feel comfortable and knowledgeable about your oral hygiene. I do my best to make every appointment relaxed, positive, and maybe even a little fun. When I’m not making teeth sparkle, you’ll find me sipping on iced coffee (my true love) and dreaming of my future wiener dog. Oh, and you might find me checking cruise deals I definitely don’t need and convincing myself I need the vacation for self-care!
Meet Our Dental Assistants
Christina McDaniel
I’ve been a Certified Dental Assistant for more than 11 years and truly enjoy helping patients feel comfortable and cared for. My experience encompasses both conventional and digital dentistry, offering a wide range of patient-focused dental care. I take pride in easing anxiety, explaining procedures clearly, and creating a positive experience from start to finish. I grew up in the Florida Panhandle and have always valued connection and kindness in everything I do —both in the office and outside of it. When I’m not at work, I love spending time outdoors, going to concerts, relaxing with my family, and hanging out with my dog. Can’t wait to welcome you to Inspired Dental!
Kimberly Coronel
Hi! I’m Kim, a Certified Dental Assistant with several years of hands-on experience in both general and specialty dentistry. I love being part of the process that helps patients feel confident and comfortable with their smiles. My favorite areas of dentistry include surgical assisting, digital and CBCT scanning, taking intraoral photos, and working on restorative procedures such as fillings — especially when I get to see the excellent before-and-after results that make patients smile with pride. I’m originally from Venezuela and have had the opportunity to work in fast-paced dental offices in California. Now, I’m happy to call Florida home. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, which allows me to easily connect with patients from different backgrounds and help them feel relaxed during their visits. Outside the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring Florida, and capturing special moments with my camera.
Meet Our Administrative Team
Nick Roa
Practice Administrator
I’m a business administrator with five years of experience in the dental field at Inspired Dental in Windermere. I’m passionate about elevating the patient experience—making sure every visit feels clear, comfortable, and respectful from the first hello to the final goodbye. I fully embrace our philosophy of leading with respect, clarity, and compassion at every step. Outside the office, I love spending time with my wonderful wife and cheering on my daughter’s milestones. I’m bilingual in English and Spanish, and it’s an honor to serve our diverse neighbors across Ocoee, Winter Garden, and Doctor Phillips.
