Meet Our Team

Hello, my name is Karen and I just recently started working in the dental field when I moved to the Bend area. We previously lived in Medford, OR, where I taught first grade and kindergarten for 10 years. So, I’ve been busy learning all about dentistry and insurance! I really enjoy meeting all our patients and hearing about the fun things to do and see in this area. I was born and raised in Roseburg, OR, and then moved to Medford to raise our two beautiful daughters. They are both teachers, one a third-grade teacher in Sisters and the other, a middle school English teacher in Pullman, WA. We are very proud of them! In my free time, I love kayaking, reading, and visiting new places. I recently got a SUP for my birthday, so I’m working on my balance! I can’t wait to explore more of Central Oregon.

My name is Jessica, and I am a dental assistant here at Peak Dental. I have been a dental assistant since 2021 and have worked in both general dentistry and oral surgery. What I enjoy most about my job, besides the people I work with, is meeting a wide variety of patients and getting to know them all. I grew up right here in Central Oregon. I was raised in a tight-knit family, so outside of the office, my boyfriend Brian and I enjoy spending time with them and our friends whenever we get the chance. During the summer, which is my favorite season, the water is our happy place! We are spoiled with so many options around here and love exploring and kayaking. I also enjoy reading, cooking, baking, and my dog, Maizy!
