Danielle has been in the dental field for more than 20 years. During that time, she has been fortunate to work in progressive practices. This has kept her knowledge of dental management current and continually growing in this ever-changing field.  Since 2010, she has been very happy to call Mountain View Dental in Forest Grove her home. She has been a member of the Oregon Dental Executives’ Association for 3 years and this is her second year serving on the board. She was drawn to the ODEA because of the mutual passion the members have for sharing and enhancing all aspects of the dental experience in order to provide a positive and productive experience for both the patient and practice.

On a personal note, Danielle and her husband are approaching the empty nester phase of their journey in life! They enjoy kayaking, exploring Oregon and dabbling in photography. Most of their family lives locally and she considers herself very lucky to be able spend time with them often.
