Lisa was born and raised in Grants Pass. After graduating from GPHS, she attended University of Oregon and Lane Community College, receiving her dental hygiene degree in 1985. She lived and worked in Corvallis for more than thirty years, raising her two sons and enjoying various volunteer opportunities in her community. She recently moved back to Grants Pass to marry her high school sweetheart, himself a retired dentist. She has worked in both general dentistry and periodontal specialty offices. Her goal is always to perform very thorough yet very gentle cleanings, working with each patient to restore and maintain periodontal and dental health. She loves that her job allows her to meet lots of people. She truly enjoys getting to know each person, and has made many friends and hiking buddies with her patients over the years!
Her hobbies are hiking, rock hunting, kayaking, reading, travel, music,
gardening, nature photography, and cheering for the New York Mets!
