Nicole Black, RDH

Registered Dental Hygienist

Hi, my name is Nicole Black. I have been working as a Dental Hygienist for over a decade now and working for Dr. Mulé specifically for 5 years. I absolutely love coming in and seeing all the smiling faces of my recurring patients and catching up with them in their lives. As most know, I love Disneyland and go often and love sharing my quick tips and tricks. I have a husband of 5 years now. We have a beautiful high energy toddler son at home and he is soon to have a baby sister in September 2023. My husband and I love dressing up from going to the renaissance faire, comic cons, to Halloween. We are all in it and our children will be part of it now as well. Family traditions in the making!!



Terri Rahiri, RDH

Jodi Anderson

Front Desk Receptionist/Marketing Manager

I was raised here in the Salinas Valley and I attended local schools. I joined Dr. Mulé's practice in 2008 as a temp, but got the chance to become a permanent member of this incredible team. I truly enjoy my daily interactions with our wonderful patients and serving in all aspects of our practice.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my four wonderful children and my dog, riding horses, and just enjoying the outdoors.


Kerri Mulé

Office Manager

My name is Kerri, and yes I am Dr. Mulé's other half. I've been working mostly behind the scenes since we purchased the practice back in 2006. That was an amazing year for us, in addition to becoming practice owners we also became parents to our one and only son, Anthony. Fast forward to today, our son is off at college and we are still busy focusing on providing our patients the best care.

When I'm not at the office, I enjoy spending my time watching Anthony play volleyball. I also enjoy, hitting a ball around with a stick and yelling at said ball for not going where it's supposed to (some people call it golf), traveling, and taking walks with our fur baby, Abigail.
