I started working as a dental assistant in June of 1971. I have been a part of Dr. Bennion’s team since June of 1994.

As an assistant, I enjoy visiting with patients, seeing the changes and progress that occurs while they are in braces. I especially like to see the end result of their hard work when their braces come off. Working independently is a big plus about being an orthodontist assistant.

It is a pleasure to come to work and be with such a wonderful group of women who are friends.

Our office has longevity and many years’ experience with a group of fun loving individuals we can call family.

I have lived in Eugene most of my life. I attended South Eugene High School and Lane Community College where I received my Dental Assisting Certificate in 1971. I am the Mother of three sons and one daughter. I enjoy family and friends, walking my dog, traveling, reading and square dancing.
