Maisa Mickelson is the founder of Nova Dental, a multi-location, full-service dental group serving Tampa Bay. Founded in 2021, Nova Dental was built on a deliberate vision to combine advanced clinical excellence with elevated customer experience, supported by disciplined operational systems. Mickelson launched the family company to create a sustainable and scalable model where empathy and precision coexist.
Strategic, disciplined and deeply resilient, Mickelson leads with analytical rigor grounded in gratitude, shaped by her journey as an immigrant, wife and mother.
Nova Dental distinguishes itself as a comprehensive practice offering preventive, restorative, cosmetic, orthodontic and surgical services under one roof. Patients experience not only technical expertise, but warmth, transparency and continuity of care.

This Year’s Focus: Scaling with excellence, not just expansion.
Behind the scenes, growth is driven by structured financial oversight, compliance systems, leadership development and operational integration, creating a foundation that allows excellence to scale without compromise.
To watch Mickelson this year is to watch intentional expansion, strengthened infrastructure and the cultivation of emerging leaders within her organization.
For her, female leadership means combining strength with empathy and leading with both conviction and grace.
