Meet Our Team

As a five-year veteran of dentistry, Rachel says the best part of her job is working with patients to help them overcome their fear and anxiety at the dental office. She originally got her dental assisting certification in 2009 and eventually went to hygiene school at Carrington College in Portland, graduating in 2012. She is also certified in local anesthesia and nitrous oxide sedation.

Rachel calls Astoria home, and she says her family is “loving, outdoorsy, loud, and competitive.” She likes to spend time in the great outdoors as well, whether that involves fishing, camping, gardening, or hiking. You’ll know who Rachel is before you even meet her because she’ll be the one humming while cleaning a patient’s teeth!
