I started practicing dentistry in 1982, but I have been in dentistry all my life. I grew up with many dentists and dental scientists coming through our home and constantly discussed dental and life principles with my dad. I have the opportunity to take care of a great “family” of patients. Some of the families now extend to four generations and have been in our care for over 55 years. I thank you all for this privilege. This gives me a great advantage in observing what time-tested principles solidly apply and the perspective to see the waves of the future and which cutting edge techniques will enhance your health and appearance. Personally, I enjoy time with my wife, Jae, daughter, Logan, and son, Collin. Theyare the center of my life. The time I have for reading is confined to technical dentistry and spiritual enrichment. I also enjoy jogging, bike riding and occasionally playing golf. Between school activities, Jae's speaking engagements, time with extended family and sports, life is full and rewarding!
