LINDA

Linda was born and raised in Washington state where she graduated from Stadium High School. Linda attended Clover Park Technical College to complete her degree in Dental Office Administration.

When she was 16, dentistry happened to find her when she was asked to help a local dentist with their scheduling system. After successfully helping patients schedule visits to receive quality care and working with the dental team, she confidently knew dentistry was the career she would grow to love.

When Linda is outside of the office, and the weather allows, you can find her hiking and rock hunting. When Linda is at home she enjoys working on her yard and loves remodeling.

Hygiene

 

Jeanine, RDH

Jeanine spent her childhood in Golden Colorado which is the proud home of the Coors Brewing Company. She graduated from Golden High School and completed her dental hygiene training at the Community College of Denver/Lowry. In 2018, she moved to the Pacific Northwest and landed in Tacoma, WA.

Jeanine loves working with people. As a dental hygienist, she loves interacting with and educating her patients on maintaining healthy teeth rather than lecturing. Her goal is to provide a thorough gentle cleaning and hopefully share some laughs with her patients along the way.

Since moving to the Pacific Northwest, Jeanine enjoys gardening. She notes it is much easier to keep plants green in this state. Otherwise, when our area is graced with sunny days, you can bet she is outside enjoying the weather!

Shannon, RDH

Shannon grew up in the small town of Clarkston, WA and completed her undergraduate training at Washington State University and completed her Dental Hygiene degree at Shoreline Community College.

Shannon was no stranger to dentistry prior to her dental hygiene degree. She was a dental assistant for seven years and wanted to educate patients on how to prevent the problems she was helping to treat. This led her to dental hygiene. Shannon loves to make her patients feel at ease and to help keep them smiling.

Outside of dentistry, Shannon loves enjoying all the Pacific Northwest has to offer with her husband and son. During the summer, if Shannon and her family are not BBQing with friends or hanging out on the lake, they are most definitely camping.
