I relocated in summer of 1991 from California looking for a fresh start and space for my then 2 children and adding my youngest in 1991. I began my dental career as a dental assistant and worked up to Management roles for both Corporate and Private practices as well as developed and consulted different businesses on growth and management. I love what I do and am glad my first passion of being a lawyer has not come true yet.

I met my boyfriend James in April of 2014 and between the 2 of us we have 9 children, 8 grandchildren and 1 fur baby named Cujo. James and I love food, socializing, learning new technology and traveling with Cujo and watching him play. When I am not here at the office, I love to curl up to a good book or movie, hang out with friends and family or travel Arizona. I am still in search of the wild mustangs to get photos. So, if you see them let me know where they are!

I am blessed and enjoy working with Dr. Gore because it allows me the opportunity to interact with a wide variety of people from diverse backgrounds, age groups, and occupations.

I was born and raised in Rexburg Idaho where I started my dental career 11 years ago. I moved to Pocatello Idaho then off to Seattle where I spent 5 years. Since July of 2019, I am happy to call Arizona my home. In my career, I have had the chance to work alongside multiple dentists, but now I am fortunate enough to be a part of Dr. Gores practice. Dr. Gore encourages his team to gain knowledge and new skills to share with our patients. Dr. Gore also provides the most up-to-date technology and equipment to treat our patients. I truly enjoy working for Dr. Gore knowing he genuinely cares about his patients and staff.

In my spare time, I love enjoying the beautiful outdoors which includes hiking, paddleboarding, snowboarding, traveling, exploring Arizona, and spending time with my husband and two dogs Scully and Spice. Im always looking for new adventures, so feel free to share yours on your next visit. Hope to see you soon!

I was born and raised in Arizona, the sunshine state, where I was introduced to a career that I grew to love. I been in the dental field for over 20 years and I still love it. I have worked with many Dentists with numerous skills but Im glad I was chosen to join Dr. Gores practice and became part of a team that I enjoy working with. Dr. Gore has given me the knowledge of new technology that is given to the patients for better care and also esthetics that gives them the smiles that they really have been wanting. This office made me look at patient care in an entirely new way for the better of health and cosmetics. I am grateful that Dr. Gore enjoys and treats his staff and patients with the quality and standard of care that is well deserved.

When I am not in the office I love to spend a lot of time with my husband and grandkids whom I love very dearly and also teach them the knowledge that I gained from Dr. Gore on keeping up with home care. I look forward to being a part of your GOREgeous smiles soon.

Im from a small town in central Illinois. I have always loved going to the dentist and knew that I wanted to be a RDH at a young age. I graduated from Parkland College in Champaign, IL and passed my clinical and written exams for hygiene in May of 2019. I moved to Arizona in August 2019, and have been doing hygiene for almost three years now. I really enjoy educating my patients on their oral health. I am very thankful to be working with Dr. Gore and his team, everyone is incredibly passionate and caring. Also, working with updated equipment helps us as a team. We excel in providing our patients with the best kind of care. I love learning new information to keep my patients educated. Some things I like to do outside of the office are hiking, traveling and spending time with my newborn son.

In the early 1990s, I was a college student in California, working three jobs. One of them was as a dental assistant, in my home town of Palm Springs. After moving to Arizona in 1998, I continued with my dental career. In 2001, I graduated and passed the Board exams to become a Registered Dental Hygienist.

I have worked and studied alongside some outstanding dentists, who are at top of their field in dentistry. I have had the good fortune to be a part of Dr. Rod Gores practice since 2007. He encourages his team to learn and share our knowledge and skills with our patients every day. Dr. Gore provides the most up to date equipment and diagnostics to help treat and educate our patients. It is so fulfilling to work with our patients to create healthy, beautiful smiles. I have been with Dr. Gore long enough, that some of the kids I used to help into the dental chair, are now all grown up and taller than me!

When I am not at the office, I enjoy being outside. Working and focusing on small spaces inside the mouth gives me an appreciation for fresh air and big views on my time off. We live in a perfect place to get outdoors and hike. My husband and our yellow Labrador Retriever, Olivia, enjoy exploring the red rocks of Sedona and mountain trails of Colorado.

Travel is not just a hobby for me, it is an education about the world. I try to leave the country at least once a year. Some of the favorite places I have been are Iceland, Bali, Andalusia (Spain) and Marrakesh (Morocco). My patients have given me some of the best travel tips over the years.
