Additional Information
My career objectives are to acquire the right dental practice that my team and I can thrive in. My practice will be a place where our team is focused, motivated, compassionate and efficient. We will provide the highest quality dentistry possible to the community in a safe and caring environment. I want to leave a lasting legacy of goodwill and quality care that my team, my patients, and the community will remember long after I am done.
I graduated in 2016 with a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from the University of Missouri Kansas City School of Dentistry. Following graduation, I commissioned as a Captain in the United States Army and completed a 1-year Advanced Education in General Dentistry program. I served as an Army dentist for 5 years, serving Colorado, New York, and most recently at Ft. Myer, VA. Although I have been honored to serve in the military, I have found joy in the transition to private practice.
I married my high school sweetheart, Erin and we have 3 beautiful daughters: Emily, Evangeline, and Elaina. We all love being outdoors and discovering new places together. Our dog Brody often tags along on our adventures. My hobbies include sailing, going on motorcycle rides, and cooking. I am also active in my local church congregation and find peace and joy in living a spiritually focused life.
I always maintain a focus on treating my patients with compassion and skill. I completed a 1 year AEGD program after graduation which has allowed me to use the latest in modern dental treatment techniques to provide the best care possible for my patients. Most recently, my focus has been in the areas of Endodontics, CAD/CAM treatments including same-day crowns and bridges, Invisalign, and Implants. My Army career has allowed me to work closely with and be mentored by many dental specialists, which has expanded my skills and knowledge. I am active in the local dental community and dental study clubs including the local Seattle Study Club and Rappahannock Valley Study Club. Nationally I am a member of the American Dental Association, and the American Academy of Clear Aligners.
