Why dentistry?
I wanted a career in the medical field that provided good work/life balance.
I also enjoy solving problems and working with my hands.

I have been a Deacon and Elder in our church. I am also pretty shy and introverted and can tie my own flies for fly fishing.

Outside of work:
Yardwork, fly fishing, cooking on the green egg, tying flies.

Personal motto:It’s better to serve than to be served.

I am not a fan of clowns and I have been skydiving… once!
