Meet the Founder

Hi, I'm Kaylee Carreras, an 11th grader at Hialeah Gardens High School and the founder of SmileSpark Network. From a young age, I developed a passion for oral health and a deep desire to make a difference in my community. Growing up in South Florida, I saw firsthand how financial barriers can prevent people from accessing even the most basic necessities, including something as simple as a toothbrush.

That realization sparked an idea. What if there was a way to bring free dental hygiene supplies directly to the people who need them, right in the places they already visit? That idea became SmileSpark Network.

With a dream of one day becoming an orthodontist, I wanted to start making an impact long before I ever stepped into a dental office. SmileSpark is my way of doing that, of showing that you don't have to wait to create change. One station, one clinic, and one smile at a time, I'm working to build a South Florida where oral health is accessible to everyone.
