Alexa Magalski

What patients should know:

I’ve been passionate about dentistry for as long as I can remember, it’s something I knew I wanted to pursue even as a child. My goal is to make every visit comfortable and educational so our patients leave smiling and feeling cared for.

Fun fact:

I’ve completed three half marathons and have a sweet cat named Murphy!

Outside the office:

I love running, staying active, reading, traveling, listening to live music, and soaking up the sun at the beach.

What patients should know:

I’ve had the privilege of working alongside Dr. Kohani for over 20 years. Building lasting relationships with our patients and being part of their care journey is what makes this work so fulfilling.

Fun fact:

I love to sing and dance whenever I get the chance!

Outside the office:

You can find me playing the drums, enjoying volleyball at the park, or spending quality time with my family.

Brandie Marvel

Office Manager

With Us Since: 2014

What patients should know:

With over 10 years at La Jolla Cosmetic Dentistry & Orthodontics, I’ve found my passion in creating a smooth, welcoming, and supportive experience for every patient who walks through our doors. I’m deeply committed to anticipating challenges before they arise and finding solutions that make everyone’s day a little easier. I care deeply about people, and I truly love being someone patients and our team can count on.

Fun fact:

I’m a proud military mom of three boys and excited to become a grandma soon.

Outside the office:

You’ll often find me at my sons’ sports events, lifting weights at the gym, hiking San Diego’s scenic trails with my family, or singing along at a country music concert. Staying active and spending time with my loved ones keeps me energized and grounded.

Cassidy Stocker

Receptionist

With Us Since: 2025

What patients should know:

I truly enjoy building connections and creating a warm, welcoming environment for every patient who walks through our doors. My goal is to help make each visit feel comfortable and stress-free.

Fun fact:

There’s nothing I love more than a peaceful walk along the beach with a coffee in hand, especially when the waves are crashing and the sun is just starting to rise.

Outside the office:

You’ll often find me curled up with a good book, taking my two energetic dogs to the park, or tending to my growing plant collection; each one has its own little personality!

Isabel Morataya

Marketing Director and Invisalign® Coordinator

With Us Since: 2022

What patients should know:

Health and wellness have been at the core of my life ever since my mother’s breast cancer diagnosis. It inspired me to leave a career in design and return to school to become a registered dental assistant. That journey, along with overcoming my own health diagnosis, shaped my deep commitment to patient care. I understand the importance of feeling seen, supported, and truly cared for and that’s the experience I strive to give every patient who walks through our doors.

Fun fact:

I love discovering hidden gems around San Diego and exploring cultures through travel.

Outside the office:

I’m passionate about fitness and compete professionally in bodybuilding. When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me in the gym, learning about nutrition and wellness, or spending quality time with friends and loved ones.
