Dean Hanson

VP of Facilities, InterDent

I've been involved with The NEO Fund since the very beginning, working alongside Ron Hockley and supporting the mission from day one. I officially joined the board in 2023. In 2024, I had the opportunity to visit our programs in Nicaragua and Guatemala. Seeing the progress since our early development efforts in La Chureca was incredibly moving. It also reignited my passion to continue pushing the work forward, knowing there’s still so much to be done and so many lives we can impact.

Currently, I serve as Vice President of Facilities for a large dental organization in the Pacific Northwest. Looking ahead, I’m excited to deepen my involvement with The NEO Fund even further once I retire.
