Dr. Marli grew up in Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. She later obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Dental Hygiene at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. After working as a dental hygienist in Minneapolis, Dr. Marli decided to move to Indianapolis to attend the Indiana University School of Dentistry to pursue her childhood dream of becoming a dentist.

Dr. Marli discovered her passion for dentistry at age 16 when she volunteered at Open Door Dental Clinic in Door County, WI. She learned the value of connecting with patients to understand their goals and concerns. From volunteering as a receptionist and dental assistant to working as a dental hygienist and now a dentist, Dr. Marli has developed a keen appreciation for the art of dentistry and for helping people understand the importance of oral health.

Dr. Marli enjoys reading, yoga, running, and spending time in Door County with her family in her free time. She loves going to new restaurants and traveling to new places with Dr. Syrjamaki. When she's not in the clinic, you'll find her sipping on coffee and enjoying (or dreaming of) warm weather with a good book.

Fun Fact about Dr. Marli: Retired Green Bay Packer Donald Driver kissed her on the cheek!
