I have been in dentistry more years than I want to admit. I was Dr. Petersons first employee when he started his practice in 2007. I helped him get the practice going and we have many wonderful patients that I also call friends.
In November 2008 my husband, Tony, was offered a job in Anchorage, Alaska. We decided to live the Alaskan dream and moved to a small town called Eagle River, just outside Anchorage. It is a beautiful place, with mountains, lakes, rivers, wildlife and plenty of FISH! We had some great fishing adventures.
After three and a half years we decided it was time to move back down south, hopefully somewhere in the northwestern states. Dr. Peterson was kind enough to allow me to return to my dental home. I was so pleased to see all my patients again; it was like I never left.
I grew up in a small town in western Washington. I met my husband at age sixteen and we have had many adventures over the years. Our biggest adventure was a five month backpacking trip through Europe in 2007, visiting over twenty countries. We moved to Boise when we returned, to escape the rain of western Washington.
I really got interested in dental hygiene as a senior in high school. I ended up becoming a dental assistant to familiarize myself with the dental world. I worked as an assistant for two years before getting my dental hygiene education at Shoreline Community College in north Seattle.
My husband and I now have a very energetic son with a ton of personality and the sweetest, sassiest little daughter. We enjoy being outside, whether were camping, hiking, fishing or just having a picnic in the park. My family is the best part of my life.
When I was a little girl, I loved going to the dentist. I knew I wanted to be in the dentistry field. My dreams of being a hygienist came true when I received my Associates Degree of Dental Hygiene from Carrington College, and I was licensed in the State of Idaho.
In my spare time, I love to take advantage of the great outdoors here in Idaho, whether it be fishing at Cascade Lake or a hike through McCall. I also play the violin, and want to continue to learn other instruments.
I grew up knowing I wanted to help people. Ive always noticed peoples smiles, and I decided on the dental field because I wanted to help those who dont feel comfortable smiling because of their teeth.
