Liza
Registered Dental Hygienist
I’m Liza. I am originally from Boulder City, Nevada – right outside of Las Vegas. I went to school in Northern Utah at Brigham Young University for my prerequisites and Utah Valley University where I earned my Bachelor’s in Dental Hygiene. I love how fulfilling dental hygiene is and love when I can help a person improve their oral hygiene.
During my time in Utah, I developed a passion for hiking, rock climbing and canyoneering. After school, I moved to Portland, OR, and spent all my time doing the cliche PNW things like hiking, wearing flannel, and not using an umbrella.
I have one beautiful dog – a mini Australian Shepherd – named Ava. She is maybe a little spoiled and needs constant attention. Lucky for her, I live my life to give it to her.
I moved to Arizona to be closer to my sister and her kids. There is nothing more important to me than family and I have loved being able to closer to them again. I am excited to explore this part of the desert with my dog and family.
Jessica
Dental Assistant
Hi, I’m Jessica! I was born and raised in North Carolina, where most of my family still lives. In 2006 I moved to Arizona with my Mom, Step Dad, and my brother. I’ve moved around a few times since then, but I’ve always found myself coming back to Arizona where I feel most at home.
I love spending time with my family, traveling, camping, horseback riding, and anything to do with the ocean or lake. I also love spending my free time taking photos, riding sport bikes, and practicing my aim at the shooting range. I have a Rottweiler named Medusa and she is almost 5 years old. We’ve been through a lot together and she will always be my number one.
After high school I started working at customer service jobs but it never felt like it was enough, so I went back to school to become a dental assistant. Since I started my career as a dental assistant, I’ve loved every moment of it. My goal is to continue my education and become a dental hygienist.
