“Born and raised in the beautiful state of Washington, I love what I do and pour my heart into giving our patients a wonderful experience at Smile Studios. My goal is to make sure all our patients have a brighter, healthier, happier smile before they leave the door.

When I’m not working, I enjoy time with my husband Andy and two children Landon and Brooklynne. I love camping, working out and being outdoors in the sun! I have a passion for modeling and have competed as a former contestant in Miss Washington USA!” 

I love pink and the brightness and joy it brings
The best day of my life was when my kids were born. It is a blessing to have two beautiful and healthy babies that changed our lives forever.
My mom and my dad who have gone above and beyond for raising my brother and sisters and I to be the best we can be, and for teaching us hard work young. My mom has fought breast cancer and many other surgeries in her life and the strength and happiness she shows everyday is incredible. Which is why I look up to her for many reasons and is always coming out of a tough time with a positive attitude towards anything in life.
Rainbow sherbet, since it’s all different sweet flavors.
I love spending time with my kids and husband. We enjoy going on walks, camping and going on Sunday scenic drives. On rainy days crafts are always our #1 go to, thank you Pinterest!

Taupe
I love its warm hues, earth tones, and timelessness. It complements all the colors in the spectrum, from the simple beiges to sophisticated metallics.
I couldn’t single out a best day as there are simply too many. I cherish countless happy moments in all our travels, adventures, and even in our daily ordinary lives. I’ll admit, my sky diving was epic, though.
The women in my bloodline.
I was blessed with grandmothers, mother, sisters and daughters who were and are exemplary in wisdom, strength, integrity, resilience, courage, conviction, generosity, unconditional love and more. So, even if I’m the only one here in the USA, I thrive.
Coffee
The right amount of balance in terms of sweetness, smoothness and strong flavors. Plus of course, representing the coffee culture of the PNW!
Outside of the office, I love spending quality time with my husband, Michael, our 2 kids & our 2 fur babies. We love traveling, going on road trips, finding good eats and enjoying outdoor activities.

“Hi Guys! My name is Kristy and I am new to General Dentistry but I have worked in an Orthodontist’s office as a financial and front office coordinator. I am extremely excited to continue to learn about this wonderful field and I feel so lucky that I get the chance to work with Dr. Tina at Smile Studios.

On July 7th, 2019 my husband and I became first time parents to a handsome baby boy, Kody. He loves visiting the office, eating, and testing out how loud he can be.

I can’t wait to meet you! If you’re a parent, feel free to bring your little ones – I’d love to meet them as well!”

Green…one of the reasons I absolutely love living in the PNW.
That’s a hard one…there are two days in my life that I will always hold extremely close. First was the day my husband proposed….we had been traveling Europe and we decided to go on a gondola ride through the canalas of Venice…instead of getting down on one knee he said if I kneel, ill tip over the boat but.. what do you think about continuing our adventures as my wife? First and last time he was a hopeless romantic. Second, was the birth of our son. Such a flurry of emotions and craziness that the first day of his life is a blur but I’ll never forget the moment the doctors held him up for me to see…my life shifted on its axis.
Someone who is close to me: My grandfather, he was and is one of those who speak few words but when he does you better listen cause its usually gold. He showed me the magic and beauty that can be created with a creative eye, patient hand and hard work. Famous figure Mia Hamm. She is a pioneer for women’s sports especially soccer. She is always who I aspired to be when I was on the pitch.
I would be birthday cake icecream…cause everyday is a celebration. BUT….my favorite is Tillamook huckleberry pie. 🙂
Snowmobile, quad, cook, paint/refinish furniture and go on walks with my son.

Seth

“Hello All!  I’m Seth, and I’m a dental hygienist.  It’s my job to work with each patient in order to shine the light on what goes on in the mouth, and facilitate individuals in every way possible to achieve a smile they can be proud of.  I find, the most important part is simply having a game plan.  We are all eager here at Smile Studios to assist or answer any questions a person may have.  Our hope is to take some, or all, of the anxiety out of dentistry.

Outside of work, I’m spending time with my wife and kids as much as I can. One of our goals as a family is to work hard so we can play hard.  My current passion is fixing/maintaining my own machines.”

The best day of my life was when I married my wife. 15 years into our marriage, and she takes my breath away more than ever.
My hero is anyone who exhibits kindness, and a great work ethic. It’s my conviction that these two virtues could solve many of the world’s issues today.
If I were a flavor of ice cream, I’d be the pistachio ice cream in the movie “Cars”.
Outside the office, my wife and I enjoy going on motorbike rides when the weather’s nice. We frequently find things to do outside with our two boys, rain or shine: Laser tag, going on hikes, throwing the football, etc. Our boys are growing up so fast, so we take every opportunity to spend quality time with them.

“Hi, guys! I graduated from the University of Washington-Seattle in 2021 and now I am a dental assistant at Smile Studios. I love meeting new patients and making new friends every day!

Outside of work I love to go hiking, work out, and play with my little puppy! My goal is to see the world and experience different cultures and I love to receive travel recommendations!”

My favorite color has to be light purple or cyan!
I love to spend my free time with family and friends. I enjoy staying active playing basketball, soccer, and volleyball or exploring PNW hiking trails! I love to travel and would like to see as much of the world as I can to experience different cultures!
I’ve had such a blessed life so I am not sure I can pinpoint just one day. I would say that my parents moving to America 21 years ago and giving me the opportunity to be educated and live in a free nation was the best thing to happen to me.
My heroes are all the women in my family. They are all such hard working and kind women. I aspire to be like each and every one of them.
I would say that I am colorful like a birthday cake ice cream flavor!
