Born and raised in Michigan, I attended the University of Michigan for my undergraduate studies and graduated from the University of Detroit School of Dentistry in 1990. Since 1996, I have pursed excellence in clinical dentistry by taking extensive post-graduate continuing education courses at the Las Vegas Institute for Advanced Dental Studies (LVI). In 1998, I was invited to become a clinical instructor for all the hands-on classes, with a focus on the Full Mouth Rehabilitation course. I'm excited to be able to bring not only my love for aesthetic dentistry to the office, but implant placement and restoration, and treating TMJ disorders. I have been married to my wife for 32 years and we have two wonderful children. My daughter is a practicing attorney and my son is a professional musician. As a family, we all enjoy playing golf and trying new restaurants!
