I grew up in Nebraska and graduated from the University of Nebraska Medical Center- College of Dentistry. I made Carson City my home in 1998 and shortly after that opened my practice, Redrock Dental.

I’m actively involved in several professional associations, including the American Dental association, Academy of General Dentistry and the Northern Nevada Dental Society. My team and I also stay on top of the latest in dental technology and techniques through ongoing education.
Outside of work, I enjoy time with my wife, Kristin and our two children, Jens and Annika. My hobbies include mountain biking, fishing, camping and trail building. I’m also involved with SPEAR Education, Adopt a Vet and Muscle Powered, plus anything else my kids get me involved in!

I was born and raised in South Lake Tahoe and moved to Dayton in 2020. I graduated from the Dental Assisting Program at LTCC back in 2016 and have been assisting ever since. In my free time I enjoy photography, working with my animals, being outside and spending time with my family!

We are excited to welcome Cristian to our team!

We are excited to welcome Sally to our team!

Hello Redrock Dental patients!…..again.
I grew up in Washoe Valley, went to school at UNR and majored in vocal performance before turning my studies to dental hygiene at CSN in Las Vegas. I graduated with honors in 2003 and have never looked back. I began working at Redrock Dental in 2011 and retired from the industry in 2019 but it seems I couldn’t stay away! I returned in April of 2024 to my home away from home and have been thoroughly enjoying seeing all my former patients again. My husband and I of seventeen years live in Gardnerville with our teenage son who continues to make us so proud every day. I have a C-class motorhome that I love to go camping in and I also love to mountain bike, waterski, and snow ski. Thanks to everyone who has welcomed me back!

My name is Laura Nelson, and I am a dental hygienist. I was born in California, and grew up in Redding, Ca. I moved to Reno in 2006 and now it has already been almost 20 years. I have a boyfriend named Craig and a Brittany spaniel named Keelie. I am also a part-time student studying graphic design. I love photography and videography. My great passion is traveling; I absolutely love to travel. In the winter I like to ski and during the summer I like to do anything around water like going to the beach, swimming, or boating. I have been a hygienist for 10 years now and graduated from Truckee Meadows Community College. I look forward to meeting you.

I am a Registered Dental Hygienist and graduated with honors from the New Hampshire Technical Institute (NHTI) in 2013. I have advanced training in local anesthesia, nitrous oxide, and laser therapy, which allows me to provide patients with comfortable and comprehensive care.

Originally from New England, my family and I were drawn to Reno for its abundant sunshine, outdoor adventures, and beautiful snow-capped peaks. In my free time, I love exploring the outdoors with my husband and two daughters; we love hiking, mountain biking, riding ATVs through the mountains, kayaking, and skiing.
