I was born and raised in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. I received a B.S. in Biology from Penn State University and my Dental Degree from the University of Pittsburgh.
After receiving my DMD, I was commissioned into the US Navy as a Dental Officer. In the pursuit of more education, I opted to complete a general practice residency at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda Maryland. My residency had a strong focus on oral surgery, emergency dental medicine, and treating medically compromised patients like Wounded Warriors and Veterans.
From Bethesda, I accepted orders to be the dentist onboard the USS Whidbey Island (LSD-41) home ported in Little Creek Virginia. It was an honor to be the sole provider on a ship caring for the sailors and marines. The two years in Virginia granted me the opportunity to practice all disciplines of dentistry especially emergency care related to pain and infections.
Following Virginia, I completed my commission at Naval Base Kitsap. I received an honorable discharge and separated from the Navy as a Lieutenant. After being introduced to the beauty and culture of the Great Pacific Northwest, Corinne and I decided to establish roots in this remarkable community.
When I'm not taking care of teeth or taking care of my son and daughter, I enjoy swimming, cycling, and skiing. My favorite activity is grabbing an ice-cold IPA after a tough hike in one of our amazing parks. I'm also an avid reader and can't get enough Stephen King, Ken Follett, Malcolm Gladwell, or Michael Pollen.
One of my favorite quotes is “Nobody cares how much you know, until they know how much you care”. I don't think Teddy Roosevelt was referring to dentistry when he said this, but it is something I take to heart and strive to practice every day. As my patient, I care that you understand your diagnosis, I care that you are comfortable during procedures, and I care about the outcome and quality of your treatment. It would be a privilege to let me care for your dental needs.
