Kirsten

Registered Dental Assistant

I have been a dental assistant for more than 31 years and love my job! Even after all this time, I still get to meet new people and learn new things. Each day brings something new and exciting! Everyone here, from the front desk to the clinic, is fun, easygoing, and puts patients’ needs first!

Lori

Dental Assistant

I joined the dental field more than 40 years ago and brought my extensive assisting experience with me when I joined Dr. Lashinsky’s team in 2019. Each day brings something new and different—variety that makes it fun to come to work. The patients are the best, of course! I love seeing them overcome their fears and delight in their beautiful smiles!

I am an avid dog lover and enjoy exploring different camping and hiking spots with my daughter and son-in-law! Quilting and reading take up my time when the weather is bad, while gardening and beach time occupy me when the sun is shining!

Paula

Administration

I have more than 25 years of experience working in medical administration, providing excellent customer service while scheduling appointments and coordinating payments. Joining Dr. Lashinsky’s team in 2019, I’ve enjoyed getting to know our family of patients and helping them achieve the healthy smiles they want.

I’m married with two children, five grandchildren, and two cats. In my free time, I love hiking and exploring the outdoors!

Seth

Dental Hygienist

I grew up on the Columbia River in Carson, WA and graduated from WSU in 2013. I earned my dental hygiene degree from Pima Medical Institute in Seattle in 2018 and joined Dr. Lashinsky’s office shortly thereafter. Our team here is very much like a family, and we treat our patients like family as well. We all love to help patients achieve their best smile, and educate them on all things dental!

I got married in September 2019 and now live in Shoreline with my husband Ryan, our dogs Roo and Rayne, our cats Dexter and Domino, our crested gecko Murdock, and our chickens Henrietta, Heidi, and Harley (Quinn). I enjoy cooking, photography, playing my bassoon, traveling, and watercolor painting in my spare time.

Stephanie

Registered Dental Assistant

I began my dental career as an assistant, graduating with my degree as an RDA in 2006. Joining Dr. Lashinsky’s office in 2020, I can be found at the front desk, where I greet patients and answer any questions or concerns they may have. Ours is a GREAT team! We all work together to get things done while building each other up to be the best we can be.

I am married and a momma to two rambunctious boys who are my everything and also take up most of my free time. When I do find a moment, I enjoy baking and cake decorating, a variety of crafts, and cheering for the Seahawks and Huskies!
