Nola Nakerud – “In the Field”

     Hola! My name is Nola Nackerud and I have been a Peace Corps volunteer for four years. I am 55 years old and am very happy and honored to be volunteering in Nicaragua. I recently came to Phoenix to see my best friend and complete some medical and dental appointments. It was hard to go to a new dentist in a new city, but that all changed the minute that I walked into Harris Dental. They made me feel so welcomed and cared for. My new smile tells it all!
As an environmental volunteer in Nicaragua, I work in rural schools with issues such as trash disposal, planting trees, worm production and youth groups. I am also working on library and park development projects for my little community. I started working with deaf children three years ago and am continually learning Nicaraguan Sign Language. In addition, I conduct parent outreach in rural areas about deafness and participate in an interchange with deaf and hearing students. I never thought I would be living in Nicaragua, but I am cherishing each moment I am there.
     I want to thank my “little dental family” at Harris Dental from the bottom of my heart. I am so grateful to have found them and so are my teeth! Remember to enjoy the journey as you travel through life. Reach out and touch people…smile…and above all…care!

     A professional photographer for 20 years, I have photographed everyone from the President of the United States to newborn babies. I travel extensively to photograph various events and have a particularly funny memory of photographing a group of cowboys, herding cattle in the desert…while I was riding a horse!
     I also photograph families, children, high school seniors, expectant mothers, and newborns in my cozy, in-home studio or work on location valley wide. One of my favorite portrait assignments is capturing the beautiful smiles of happy Harris Dental patients. Many who never felt comfortable being photographed before become eager to show off their newly confident smiles! Some of my favorites now decorate the walls of Harris Dental.
     I have been a patient of Joe Harris for 23 years. The staff never fails to amaze me with their knowledge and expertise. I am always confident that my family and I are receiving the very best care from a dedicated group of professionals who care so very much. I tell everyone about Harris Dental and plan to be a part of the Harris family forever!
Originally from Lansing, Michigan, I live in Phoenix with my husband James, sons Jake and Anson, 2 dogs, and 2 cats. I take my boys back to Michigan every summer to visit family and enjoy the green of the forests and the blue of the incredible lakes. I feel so fortunate to have lived in such diverse landscapes, from the splendor of our desert, to the beauty of the Great Lakes.
     I continue to contribute to a body of fine art photographic work and hope to have a gallery showing someday! www.randallphotography.net
