Hi, my name is Alissa!

I studied at RCC in their Dental Assistant Program and obtained my EFDA certification, Radiology, and Associates Degree. I chose the dental field because I believe helping people feel confident and comfortable with their smiles is so rewarding. I love to be around people and help them, so I could not think of a better field to join.

I Love Summit because it feels more like working with family than clocking in and clocking out. I have learned so much from all the people here and cannot wait to continue to learn more each day!

When I’m not working, I love to hike the table rocks, go rock climbing, and be at the Oregon Coast. I adore dogs and most cats and have one dog and one cat. I have a 2-year-old son who takes up most of my current free time and am the youngest of 3 sisters!
