Even before graduating from dental school at the University of Washington, I knew I wanted to be a part of a small family focused practice. I began my dental career here in Kent in 2003 and quickly found it to be exactly what I was hoping for. I moved to Washington after graduating high school in 1994 and fell in love with the area. During my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, wandering trails, and camping.
In 2000, I graduated from Pierce College as a Registered Dental Hygienist. I began working in this office later that year. I have been living in Burien with my husband, Mark, for the last 30 years. In our spare time, we like camping, going to the beach, and cheering on the Seahawks.
I am a simple mom of 3 wonderful children and a wife of a talented but humble man. I enjoy painting, singing and eating. I also love animals, nature and I often catch myself studying people's facial expressions. Prior to my dental journey, I invested much of my time in creative and social types of work. I also operated a part time photography hobby/business for 14 years and enjoyed creating and cultivating relationships with some awesome individuals and families that still say hi to me, from time to time. I was also an On-Call Interpreter for 20+years.
Today, as I learn new technical skills in the dental field, I can't help but admire the science, technology and art that surrounds this industry. I am in awe! I am truly pleased to be a part of the Allison Kutz DDS family.
