I was raised in the San Diego area where I started working, after school at the age of 13, at my father's dental practice. I received my bachelors degree in zoology with minors in chemistry and music from BYU. I then got my dental degree with honors from OHSU in the year 2000. I owned a private practice in Portland Oregon from 2000-2012. I also was a faculty member at the dental school one day a week where I was a clinical instructor and taught classes on anesthetics and ethics. After a lot of research and over two decades of experience, I honestly believe we can give you the most comfortable numbing experience possible.

In 2012 we moved to Billings Montana, where I took over a dental practice that was more surgically oriented. I traveled around the country training with some of the nations top dentists learning all I could about implants, tissue grafting, cosmetic dentistry, and Invisalign treatment. Ive placed 100s of implants, and have been helping people get the smile theyve always wanted, whether through Invisalign treatment or cosmetic dentistry for almost twenty years. We have always loved the mountains and the beauty of Jackson, so when an opportunity came to acquire ElkRidge dental we were thrilled at the opportunity. My wife Rachel and I are thrilled to become part of this community along with our 14 year old son and 12 year old daughter. Our oldest child is a music major studying harp performance at BYU, so we are also happy that being in Jackson will allow us better access to go down to Provo and hear her perform more often. We love to ski in the winter, and mountain bike, golf, or paddle board in the summer. I look forward to meeting you.

I graduated from Colorado Northwestern College in 1985 with a degree in dental hygiene.I have been licensed in the state of Wyoming since 1994 and am a member of the American Dental Hygiene Association.I am proficient in clinical dental hygiene, x-rays, and gum therapy.Being passionate about my profession helps me to really care for my patients' oral health. Working with the staff at Elkridge Dental is a bonus for me as we have a great rapport with each other. Please come visit our dental family we are a fun, caring, and kind office.

Jacquelyn was born in New York and raised in New Jersey. She has been in Jackson for over 25 years. Jacqui started spending summer breaks in Jackson in the early 80's; back then most of her time was spent in the backcountry hiking, climbing, and falling in love with this beautiful place. Amazed by what the valley had to offer she wanted to make this her home.

Working for ElkRidge Dental for the last 8 years, has been fun and exciting for Jacqui. She began working part time when her children were young and now working full time with grown teenagers. Jacqui appreciates her career as a Dental Hygienist and enjoys the ElkRidge Dental staff and patients very much.

Rebecca has lived in Jackson for the last 25 years. What started out as a summer job turned into her passion and most of her dental career has been in this very practice. She and her husband Steve have 4 kids. Family life keeps her busy running to all the kids sporting events from basketball to swimming. Camping and visiting National Parks is a favorite thing to do in the summer. Rebecca may be the only person in Jackson that doesnt ski but she finds many other things to do in the winter months. She has lots of hobbies that keep her busy. She enjoys leading the 4-H sewing club. Rebecca is fluent in Spanish and considers it one of her many super-powers.

I have been a dental assistant since May of 2004. I have taken several classes in Salt Lake City, Utah and Idaho Falls, Idaho on sterilization, dental assisting, making crowns, and oral pathology. I have always enjoyed dentistry and working with patients. I take pride in always trying to make the patient feel comfortable and have the best experience possible. I enjoy all dental procedures, but I have an affinity for surgical procedures.
