I was previously a dental assistant at Burley Kids Dental and loved it! I decided to continue my education and become a dental hygienist. I graduated from CSI in May 2020 and I’m back working with the amazing staff at Burley Kids Dental. It’s been a dream job for me. I love working with kids and helping them feel safe and excited to be at the dental office, just like when I was a kiddo! I am a mom of two beautiful kids who keep me busy when I’m not at work. We love being outside, going camping to hot spring and riding bikes!

I have worked in healthcare for a combination of 13 years. Most recently, my past 7 years have been in the Emergency Department as a registrar and insurance verifier. I decided in 2021 to change career paths and started my prerequisites through CSI for the Dental Hygiene program. I have been lucky enough to join Burley Kids Dental as a dental assistant to gain experience and knowledge from all staff. I strive to provide a caring and fun dental experience for your child while also educating them on oral health. I hope to graduate with my Dental Hygienist license and continue to work with this amazing team! I enjoy spending time with my husband and our blended family of 6 children and 2 grandchildren. I have had the honor or representing our great community as Mrs. Mini-Cassia in the Mrs. Idaho pageant 2 years in a row and plan to return to compete soon. In my spare time I volunteer for several different causes but am most passionate about advocating against domestic violence and human trafficking. I also enjoy cooking, baking cakes, concerts, dancing, kayaking and traveling.

Ashley

Dental Assistant

I’m new to the dental field after being a stay-at-home mom for 13 years. I never thought I would love a job as much as I do here at BKD! I adore working with children, making them feel comfortable, and excited to be at the dentist! There is never a dull working with all the kiddos! When I am not at the office, I enjoy spending my time with my husband, three kids, and our loyal doggy, Hank. They are my pride and joy! As a family we love hunting, hiking, archery, and camping. In the summer you’ll find me out working in my yard and garden from sun up to sun down!

When I’m not in the office you can definitely catch me out and about at TJ Maxx or Walmart!
