Staci, Registered Dental Hygienist

I have spent nearly 20 years working in the dental field. My first job out of high school was as an assistant for a dentist in Hutchinson. I worked for him for 8 years until he decided to retire. My doctor then encouraged me to continue my education and become a dental hygienist. I took his advice and graduated with my bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from Wichita State University in 2015. I love my job and I am very passionate about the dental field. There is no better feeling than having my patients walk out of our office with a smile on their face. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my son, Kohen, family and friends. We are all very outdoorsy and spend about every moment we can making memories camping, fishing and boating. I also enjoy golfing, hunting and I have been bowling in league since I was 3 years old. I would love to welcome any new patients to Sage Brush Dental Health and help with all your dental needs.
