Hey there! My name is Dakota and I am originally from Idaho Falls, ID. I love every activity Idaho has to offer, but I especially love skiing, mountain biking, snowmobiling, and dirt biking. In high school, I pretty much only cared about football and achieving my dream of being an NFL wide receiver. During college, I was lucky enough to walk on to the University of Utah football team. I quickly realized I wasn't good enough for the NFL, so I decided to settle for the next best thing. So, I applied for dental school! I was able to convince my beautiful girlfriend at the time to try a long-distance relationship with me while I lived in Omaha and she stayed back in Idaho. Luckily, I was also able to convince her to marry me following my D2 year. I am currently a fourth-year dental student at Creighton School of Dentistry and I am so excited to start my career. I can't wait to leave the Midwest and return to my home area. Whatever I lack in experience I can make up for in my passion and dedication to being the best dentist I can be.
