She has been selected as an Emerging Leader of the American Association of Orthodontics and a finalist for the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics Student of the Year Award.

Johnson Clinical Award for Table Clinics at the American Association of Orthodontics Annual Session. Dr. McNeight believes in lifelong learning and completes many hours of continuing education every year to ensure she is providing the most technologically advanced treatment for her patients.
Dr. McNeight’s favorite part about orthodontics is providing the highest level of individualized care while getting to know each patient and family personally. She focuses not only on straightening teeth, but also on providing a personalized smile that fits with each patient’s unique facial features to give the most dazzling results possible. She loves witnessing the life-changing effects a beautiful, healthy smile can produce.
In her free time, Dr. McNeight enjoys traveling, waterskiing, snow skiing, reading, cheering on the Gators, and spending time with her family and shih tzu rescue dog, Romeo. She is actively involved in the Brevard community as a member of 321Millennials, Melbourne Alumnae Panhellenic, and the Junior League of South Brevard. She is thrilled to be back in her hometown providing beautiful smiles for the residents of the Space Coast!
